Supported by facts:

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!

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.

Asian American strength at TJ grew organically from 19% in 1985 to 73% in 2020, in gradual increments of approximately 1.54% per year over the 35 year period. In one single year, 2020, the Asian American strength was forced down by 18% from 73% back to 54.36%. And there was no deliberate racial balancing effort that took place?

That's a different question. There was certainly a deliberate effort to remove obstacles for low-income families, which had an impact on the racial balance of the class because in Northern Virginia, race and socioeconomic status track together fairly nearly.

It cannot be the case that an effort to eliminate racial or socioeconomic discrimination, however unintentional it may have been, is illegal. Otherwise any pre-existing systemic discrimination becomes institutionalized, and the low-income Asian students who were the greatest beneficiaries of the new admissions process get shut out of opportunities that they richly deserve.

Of course deliberate racial balancing efforts took place, with racial suppression as the target. That is the specific reason Supreme Court is being asked to hear this case. Read this:
"
One particularly damning text exchange between board members Abrar Omeish and Stella Pekarsky left no doubt that they understood the TJ admissions change would be an attack on Asian American students:

Pekarsky: “It will whiten our schools and kick [out] our Asians. How is that achieving the goals of diversity?”

Omeish: “I mean there has been an anti asian feel underlying some of this, hate to say it lol.”

You may be partially right. new admissions nicknamed as "Merry Lottery", merit being perceived as an offending word to few.

who knows why they texted instead of call or what phone plan they were on. But this summarizes it all:

"The documents show what TJ parents believed: The new admissions process was meant to target Asian American students, and school board members knew what they were doing. Yet they voted unanimously in favor of eliminating merit-based, race-blind admissions tests. That is not just wrong — it’s illegal. The Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause is a promise that our government, including public schools such as TJ, will treat all citizens as individuals and not members of a racial group."

One particularly damning text exchange between board members Abrar Omeish and Stella Pekarsky left no doubt that they understood the TJ admissions change would be an attack on Asian American students:

Pekarsky: “It will whiten our schools and kick [out] our Asians. How is that achieving the goals of diversity?”

Omeish: “I mean there has been an anti asian feel underlying some of this, hate to say it lol.”

Wonder why these two board members chose to text instead of voice call. Likely on unlimited text plan

who knows why they texted instead of call or what phone plan they were on. But this summarizes it all:

"The documents show what TJ parents believed: The new admissions process was meant to target Asian American students, and school board members knew what they were doing. Yet they voted unanimously in favor of eliminating merit-based, race-blind admissions tests. That is not just wrong — it’s illegal. The Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause is a promise that our government, including public schools such as TJ, will treat all citizens as individuals and not members of a racial group."

As a PP explained this text was in reference to a change that never happened so not sure it's pertinent to anything.

It's clear this was done mainly to change the racial demographics of the school. The words 'equity' and 'diversity' are strewn all over the texts and emails. We know what that means.

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

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!

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.

Asian American strength at TJ grew organically from 19% in 1985 to 73% in 2020, in gradual increments of approximately 1.54% per year over the 35 year period. In one single year, 2020, the Asian American strength was forced down by 18% from 73% back to 54.36%. And there was no deliberate racial balancing effort that took place?

Of course deliberate racial balancing efforts took place, with racial suppression as the target. That is the specific reason Supreme Court is being asked to hear this case. Read this:

You. Have. No. Evidence. Of. This.

Again, ALL of the documents in the so-called "TJ Papers" refer to an admissions process that was REJECTED by the School Board. They probably believed that what Brabrand was doing was (or at least appeared to be) anti-Asian on some level - and they REJECTED it. Resoundingly, too - I believe it was a 10-2 margin against.

Where is the evidence that the actual new policy was adopted with the intent of reducing the proportion of Asian students, rather than of increasing the proportion of Black, Hispanic, and low-income students?

Asian Americans are one of the five racial minority groups who are protected from discrimination in the United States of America under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, guaranteeing equal protection under the law.

This only happens in America, double standard racism.

Lemme guess: You preferred the old traditional types of racism. Ammirite?
