The top students from each school are not the same thing as the top students from the participating jurisdictions. FCPS replaced merit with a spoils system to appease the resentful parents of less qualified applicants. |
Parents are in quandry why their students were even offered admissions when the school rigor is a mismatch to student prerequisite skills. The bottom quarter of current class struggles with poor grades and is constantly in discussions about returning to base school, and staff convincing to stay back and accept low grades as normal. |
Are you a counselor? Or a parent in a large group chat? How do you know this? |
They don’t. People like to make up narratives. |
What makes you think this would not be discussed among students? |
Let's hope this new principal is half as good as the last one! They brought TJ to all new highs. Those will be some tough shoes to fill. |
This type of PR only induces laughter. |
Like her or not, she did bring TJ up to #1 rankings. I hear those are important. |
Stop posting fake news.
The TJ principal cannot change the admissions process. It was proposed by the superintendent and tweaked/approved by the school board. |
And she cosigned their plan to discriminate against asian kids in the name of equity. |
Her rhetoric was anti-Asian and anti-merit and she was very much on the bandwagon to change TJ admissions. Results were predictable: a sharp decline in TJ’s national ranking and a student body the majority of whom are no longer NMSF or commended students. Good riddance. |
Lies. Her rhetoric wasn’t “anti Asian”.
There is no discrimination. And a 0.36% lower ranking isn’t a “sharp decline”. GTFO. |
It's not even the top students from each school. It's much more random than that. |
Why did she keep telling asians to check their privilege? |
Did she actually single out Asian people? Or, more likely, are you full of crap? |
