[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.]

1. my graduation class was 120, and that was the biggest it had seen in years. mind you, the senior class started at 400... nothing like public school education. nothing.
2. why is everyone i know from the south know someone from PG? or talk about like its the secret society. some1 put me on to this PG county.

1) Yikes! Ours only started with 150 or so, so we didn't lose too many.
2) -laugh- I don't know. Prince George's County, MD, butts right up against the eastern side of DC, kind of like a backwards squashed Pac-man with two chicken legs sticking out. Montgomery County, MD, is to the north and kind of covers the north and north-eastern part of DC. I can't for the life of me remember what VA Counties get the west and south-- Fairfax, maybe?
But PG County has a ton of suburbs in it. It's different from Chicagoland where you have some smaller counties with 9-50 townships-- the whole county is one school system. Andrews Air Force Base is also out there, so with DC and government and military people and a generally middle to upper-middle class population, I think lots of people move elsewhere for college or jobs than they did for middle or high school.
I think there also may be a Prince George county in Virginia. Probably also in some other states. Dunno. But the TV news out there in DC/MD/VA calls it PG County all the time. Newspapers vary.

Yep. Prince Georg e's County in MD and Prince Georg e County in VA. But no comparison in population--800,000+ versus 30,000.

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.
