Talk:Bishop O'Connell High School

message: I made two modifications to the introduction. First, I added information to the first sentence clarifying what the school is ("a Roman Catholic college preparatory high school"), which appeared nowhere in the first paragraph. I also changed the second sentence to read, "It was established by the Diocese of Richmond..." because a previous edit left it with only "It was the Diocese of Richmond..." which made no sense. I assume these changes are acceptable and that there is no objection, as they are intended only to clarify. 96.255.191.11 (talk) 02:40, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Introduction edits

message: I will try to keep the site updated with current information. It doesn't look bad, but the whole thing on the girls calling into the radio station is a little much. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.201.139.186 (talk) 16:58, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: In what sense is the "thing about the girls calling the radio station" "a little much"?  It used to be pretty salacious but has been edited to reflect an impartial perspective.  For my part, since this is not the first time this has come up, I'll say that it was an event that gained the school significant public attention at the time, whether positive or negative.  If only for that reason, it's worth being documented. --johnkellystyle 19:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: ''' Updating''' 

message: I was thinking about things to add to a potential "history and folklore" section of this page.  One of them I thought of was the story of a plane crash on the O'Connell football field, maybe about 20 years or so ago.  I was told tha some kind of small aircraft like a cessna crashed into the football field behind O'Connell.  If anyone can find any sources that corroborate this story or have anything to add, including other such stories, please let me know. --johnkellystyle 07:18, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The health teachers are still talking about that one.  Maybe also add in something about the school starting out divided by gender originally and how you weren't allowed to cross this one white line painted on campus.  Not really appropriate for that section though. Outside Center 03:04, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The gender division might be appropriate for the history part of that section, actually, so not totally off base.  I never heard about the white line, but I can confirm, based on testimonials from family members who went to O'Connell in the 70s, that the genders were divided by building.  As they explained, areas in the front (roughly from the cafeteria forward) were for one gender and from the cafeteria back was for another.  I'm not sure which was which.  Feel free to correct me on this one or clarify. --johnkellystyle 03:24, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: '''More Information Needed (History and Folklore)'''

message: The list of notable alumni seems to mostly include athletes who played (or are currently playing) sports in college.  Does this really make them notable? Jrssr5 05:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I dont believe so... all of their names are externally linked to rosters.  One kid hasnt even started playing yet.  Feel free to remove them.  Queerbubbles | Leave me Some Love 18:09, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I think that the picture of the O'Connell main driveway and bus port should be removed because that area doesn't even exist anymore. That spot was turned in to a library.68.100.12.164 (talk) 23:11, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
