Fast-forward to today in April 2024:

- 130 drop-outs

130 from first year class? How get this number?

#fakenews

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.

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.

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.

So, 47 dropouts?

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

[Anonymous]

about how many froshmores are admitted to 10th grade?

Why the number was much lower in the old admissions system then?

Families moved a lot during and after pandemic.

[Anonymous]

TJ families began relocating from Northern Virginia to more favorable cities, taking advantage of the pandemic-driven work-from-home option. Approximately 85 TJ families made this move, with an additional 5 to 10 returning to their base schools, a typical annual attrition. Unlikely these were Algebra 1 students alone. Factoring in the admissions of 30 to 40 froshmores, the net deficit amounts to 47 fewer students for overall class. While this might seem like a tall tale, it is indeed a fact.

I don’t either. Idiots with an axe to grind are common on this forum but they win the prize.

Class of 2023 had 44 net loss by junior year

Class of 2021 had 50

[Anonymous]

Class of 2024 had a net loss of 41 by sophomore year

[Anonymous]

Class of 2020 had a net loss of 40 by junior year

I’ll update my spreadsheet with the data from the last couple of years when I get home. Should be interesting. I’m curious how many are left for class of 2024. They started with 486 and were already down to 445 by April 2022.
