TJ has always been inclusive and collegial

[Anonymous]

I have a child who just graduated from TJ having a wonderful experience for 4 years. Don't listen to the internet rumors. Some posters here critical of TJ openly admitted they don't even have children let alone kids at TJ.

Unfortunately the school board injected the toxicity into this school by pitting one "group" against another. It's sickening that some pro FCPS posters are attacking TJ students and parents to justify their support to an ill advised policy. Leave the kids out of this.

Please use this thread to post positives about TJ which has many. If you are critical of TJ kids, there are quite a few other threads that you can spread your hatred, rumors and innuendos.

Thank you. TJ has been a wonderful school for my two kids. Great school spirit, collaboration with challenging coursework, great extracurriculars, involved and polite kids, and lots of service. I have never been at a school with as many actively volunteering parents.

The current principal, the school board and superintendent actively maligned the school and the kids to suit their agenda and it’s not fair. The routine hate and stereotypes against these kids on DCUM, largely by those with no personal experience at the school, is appalling. Those posters will be here in seconds to continue their stereotyping and attacks.

I have an extremely negative view of TJ parents and alumni. You all are an embarrassment to the county. Not the kids.

Inclusive is not a word I would use. The number of students with IEPs or 504s is abysmal. There are many 2E students not included in the population.

One doesn’t have to have children, or children at TJ, to have a deep understanding of the environment at TJ.

Having been a child at TJ should be enough.

If you have never been a child at TJ, and instead have only heard about the version of TJ that your kids want to let you know about, kindly take a seat. You don’t know what you’re talking about, and you never will.

I know but it's so much more so now.

[phone]. There are many things about the TJ environment that are wonderful - especially if you are a part of the dominant ethnic group - but the version of it that kids present to their parents is highly sanitized and in most cases, the kids have no idea that what they are doing is problematic.

Maybe your kid does that.. Not mine. And several that we know.

And who are you again? Aren't you also a TJ parent? If not, why are you here?

I don't have kids. I was a TJ kid and I know for a fact that TJ kids do this on a regular basis. I am literally laughing out loud right now at "my kid doesn't do that". You have absolutely no way of knowing whether or not your kid presents a version of reality that pleases you rather than what is more truthful. Sit with that for a while. Your child wants to please you - this should not be surprising.

I swear - TJ parents are some of the most deluded people on earth, not only about their own children but about the world that they inhabit. Wake up.

These are our experiences as well. The kids are very collaborative.

All of this is 100% true. The negative stuff is as well.

Sounds like someone needs a "safe space" to protect them from reality.

So what's your business on a school forum? Are you the TJ whisperer who claims that kids "flock to you" to share their thoughts, feelings and opinions? Eww.. creepy.

I'm quite awake thank you. You need to leave school and grow up.

My business on a school forum is to correct some of the nonsense that goes on here.

For better or worse, people come to this forum for insights and opinions. I'm here to set the record straight because I know what I'm talking about. Parents deserve someone who actually knows what they're talking about.
