This only happens in America, double standard racism.

Affirmative action! How terrible! You can't articulate why though.

Scrapping this program is for the best. Gen Z has figured out that college is a bad deal. They're wising up and skipping it.

Vote for all Democrats this fall for SB and it will be more of the same.


Asians Americans got rid of the blackface Northam and his useful idiots. FCPS board nitwits are next.

It says one or more criteria. So if a white or Asian kid meets one of the other at risk factors they can still qualify.

The reality is a MC black kid is allowed/encouraged to participate while a MC asian kid is not. The only difference between the two is race. This isn’t the only program in FCPS that uses this criteria. This isn’t new.

At least programs like TJ are race blind.

Do you know what this program is? It doesn't sound like you do.

AG agrees with you.

"Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares and the Asian American community in Fairfax County held a town hall meeting to discuss discrimination against Asian people in Northern Virginia. "

TJ considers race and SES factors in admissions.

Actually, admissions are race-blind. Using race would be illegal in the US. They can look at SES factors.

Supported by facts:
Racial Composisiton of Admitted TJHSST Classes (Percent)
2020 (Before Reform)[2] 2021 (After Reform)[3]
Asian 73.0 54.36
White 17.7 22.36
Black ≤2.1[a] 7.09
Hispanic 3.3 11.27
Multiracial/Other 6.0 4.91

Only, one race got suppressed!

TJ doesn't consider anything. FCPS does. The TJ administration has no role in the admissions process whatsoever, and had no role in its design or adoption either.

Race is not a factor in the admissions process for TJ.

Asians were not suppressed by the new admissions process. They continued to be admitted at a rate slightly higher than their percentage of the applicant pool. Indeed, the new admissions process resulted in a distribution of offers that fairly closely mirrored the pool of applicants, meaning for the first time in its history, the TJ admissions process can be considered race-neutral.

The prior admissions process manifestly suppressed the admission rates of Black and Hispanic students, and to a lesser but still significant extent, white students. The delta between the numbers in 2024 and 2025, when viewed through a lens of statistical significance, are attributable with a very high level of confidence to the disparate impact of the old admissions process.
