Quantico Middle/High School

Secondary school in Quantico, Virginia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quantico Middle High School is a public secondary school on Marine Corps Base Quantico, and in unincorporated Prince William County, Virginia. It is a part of the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA).

History

It originated from the Quantico Post School, an elementary through high school on the base.[1] A dedicated secondary school building opened in 1962.[2] The sixth grade was moved to Quantico High in 1988. Quantico Middle School was administratively separated in 1989 with a new separate entrance, but the middle and high schools combined into Quantico Middle High School in 1997.[1]

By 2011 the DOD considered the Quantico Middle High building to be in a "failing" condition. Plans were there for a new building to open in 2015, with a price tag of $44.8 million.[2] However, this building has been delayed and has still not opened as of 2021.

Student body

Quantico Middle/High School had 300 students enrolled as of 2015, which has led to smaller than average class sizes.[3]

In 2020 it had about 350 students.[4]
