We were the tiniest school in the county-- only 120 grads that year. One block down and one block over from the Capitol Heights metro station... That used to be the end of the line!
[PG County-- I see a lot of y'all out there! Suitland, Bladensburg, High Point, Oxon Hill-- I know all of those schools from Poms. We Falcons (well, the guys) had a great run in basketball in 1990 or 1991... went to the state playoffs, I think.]

Hello local rival to the south. I teach at Fairmont Heights, 2 seconds away.
But I'm representing the:
green and the
gold !!
Parkdale High
Riverdale, Maryland
Class of 1981
And I was a Pom too! One of the first black girls to integrate the squad, which placed first that spring at Largo. Back then, Central was no competition!! Please!
Someone mentioned PG County. What's significant about PG County?? Bordering Washington to the east, predominantly Black, Prince Georges County is known for the highest concentration of upper-income African Americans in the country. But I'm not one of them.
Also the title of a book of fiction by Connie Briscoe.
