I am editing the web page, Maryvale Preparatory School on Wikipedia. The Wikipedia article online was thorough but I could add some new information.

One small fact that I could add to the general characteristics introduction paragraph is that Maryvale Preparatory School was originally abbreviated MVP. One day, it was decided that Maryvale is one word so MVP could not be used. So, MVP was changed to MPS. This was significant because the embroidery on the collared shirts used to say MVP but were changed to Maryvale. School rings were changed from MVP to MPS. This is something that I was told by a staff member at the school and I could not find proof of this online.

I can talk also about the road that Maryvale is Locate on. It is located on Falls Road in Brooklandville, Maryland. this road is very populated and runs from north of Baltimore City to almost Pennsylvania. The road runs from the urban section of Baltimore to rural areas of northern Maryland. The road runs from urban areas to suburban and rural areas. This information can be found on Wikipedia.

The other topic that I can expound upon are the sports that students play at Maryvale. The list of sports played at this school are field hockey, soccer, indoor soccer, softball, winter track, cross country, volleyball, basketball, and lacrosse. The school tries to give everyone a chance to be on a team by having freshman, junior varsity, and varsity teams. We compete against many different schoos, co-ed, non-Catholic, public, and other private all female institutions. These schools include Bryn Mawr, Saint Paul's, Notre Dame Prep, Roland Park Country school, Park, Mount De Sales, Severn, John Carroll, Garrison Forest, and St. Timothys. This information can be found on Maryvale's Site.

I can also talk about our rivalry with nearby private school, Notre Dame Prep. This school is the home of the Blazers and our biggest rival in all sports. If there was ever a sports game, the Notre Dame Prep games were the ones to watch. Every year on Halloween, the girls from Notre Dame Prep would vandalize our school by throwing toilet paper in the trees and spray painting on signs. The rivalry lives on to this day. This information is provided from my knowledge and I could not find a website where this information is included.
