context_page_description: Lake Braddock Secondary School in Burke, Virginia, United States, administered by Fairfax County Public Schools, is one of three 7-12 secondary schools in Fairfax County; the other two are Hayfield SS and Robinson SS. Lake Braddock opened in 1973. Its mascot is the bruin, and the school colors are purple and gold.
context_section_description: The school finished a three-year renovation in the summer of 2007, beginning right after school ended in June 2004. The renovations cost taxpayers around $72 million - a record for Fairfax County Public Schools. Fifty-two classroom trailers were installed on campus to accommodate the construction.  Other than expanding the school and refurbishing the building, two main goals of the project were to repair an overhaul of the ventilation system and enclose classrooms with permanent walls. Samaha Associates, P.C. were the architects for Lake Braddock's renovation, which is now seen as a model for other renovation projects in Fairfax County, such as the renovation of nearby W.T. Woodson High School.
