Ah - the “equity troll” has found this thread; no, it is not “fake news.” The class of 2025 admitted 550 students. Now there are only 441 students in the class 2025. That 441 includes ~15-20 students joining TJ as sophomores . Simple addition results in: - 130 students in the class of 2025 went back to their base schools. This data is available right on FCPS websites, including the school profile site. The fact is: the revised admission criteria is resulting in kids dropping out at a rate approximately ten times higher than pre-revision TJ admissions. |
Only 4 freshmen dropped this year, 3 juniors, and 1 junior. This is according to FCPS school profiles website |
550 were admitted, or 550 enrolled? |
TJ enrolled 541 freshmen in the fall of 2021. There are currently 503 juniors. Even assuming there were some sophomore admits, the attrition from the original Class of 2025 wouldn’t appear to be anywhere near 130 students. |
There are currently 447 juniors. You are right it's not 130, but 103. That's mostly the Algebra1 kids who went back to base school. Let's hope School Board has the decency to apologize to each drop-off for putting them through this ordeal. |
103 wows. This is blowing up on their face. |
No, dumb ass, there are currently 503 juniors. I was polite before but you keep repeating false information even when corrected. So shut up until you can manage to get your facts straight. |
When equity minions are countered with facts, resorting to profanity is a predictable reaction. That's when the facts truly become relevant. |
It takes courage and character to accept one's mistakes, both of which school board lacks. Feel sorry for the innocent students. |
DP. The 503 poster is right. The info is right here:

So, 47 dropouts? |
hopefully fixed the link. https://schoolprofiles.fcps.edu/schlprfl/f?p=108:107::105:::P0_CURRENT_SCHOOL_ID,P0_EDSL:300,0 |
That number will include kids whose families moved and left the county as well as kids who returned to their base school. This sounds like pretty normal attrition for a demanding school in a region where people move a lot. |
Half of 100+ dropout number was blunted by the TJ admissions doing outreach for froshmore 10th grade applications at the top schools from merit students, same students that were denied as freshman by essay lottery admissions |
