| TJ was ranked the 5th best high school in the country! The #1 school was Early College Guilford in NC, probably just a Duke feeder or something. |

The data is from before the admissions changes. |

\ it's not fair to compare a school of 200 students with TJ with 2000 students. TJ has more students than the top 4 high schools put together. Looking at Virginia ranking, the #2 and #3 from Richmond each have 200 students, while all the NOVA schools have at least 2000, excluding George Mason out of Falls Church. |

| I notice these lists are always dominated by magnet and charter schools, two BASIS schools are on the top of the list, as well as various other stem and technology schools. |

It doesn't appear to acknowledge the existence of Maggie Walker, as far as I can tell. |

| How does Mclean outrank Langley when Langley is wealthier and has like 1/4th the number of ESOL/FARMS kids? |

Fairfax is by far the largest school district in the state so . . . And TJ isn’t a Fairfax school. |

It is absolutely an FCPS school. It is operated expressly and exclusively by FCPS. |
