FCPS has updated its dashboard to indicate 2024-25 schools transfers.

Not sure I follow this.. TJ has about 400-500 kids per grade; way less than the sum of the above numbers. |
TJ was expanded to 550. |
Ok. Above info still doesn’t make sense. |
These are just transfers from high schools that didn't get in after 8th grade. At least that's what it looks like. |
This is not including the kids from other counties. |
Wrong |
Right |
It must be ALL kids from that school - so counting every grade not just the “move” grade in 9th. |
Other counties send students too. |
Do transfers from private schools get put as a transfer from a private or the public school the student is zoned? |
Link please. |
That is 1353 total students.There are fewer than 550 freshmen this year. And you can't explain the difference with froshmores. |
How many come from Arlington, Loudoun and Prince William? I know Arlington used to cap it at 25 per year (so 100 in total), but I don’t know if they have changed that. |
TJ has about 2100 students. These are the students from Fairfax County. FCPS indicates the base pyramids of those students on its capacity dashboard. They are reported as "transfers" although most of these students always attended TJ for HS. So there are 133 kids who live within the McLean boundaries at TJ this year, all the way down to Mount Vernon with 24. It shows that every FCPS pyramid is now represented but some continue to be represented more than others. Note that Annandale has 56 students. That doesn't mean those kids necessarily attended middle schools near Annandale. If a family moves into the Annandale pyramid, the geographical area of which includes TJ, after a kid gets admitted to TJ, it shows up as a "transfer" from Annandale. |
