Student Race information is already being collected on the Student registration form for federal federal funds/reporting, etc. purposes, after students decide to enroll at TJ.

Why collect it for all applicants?

Probably for reporting. Possibly for VDOE to monitor the admissions process.

Applicants can also decline to share IIRC.

Application does not provide option to not share. Race is a required field to submit the application.

Admissions are race-conscious. Every FCPS news release on TJ admissions leads with the racial percentage breakdown, even before mentioning middle school offer counts.

Even if the data is collected for reporting, admissions evaluators do not know the race, ethnicity, or gender of any applicant.

Stop pushing wacko conspiracy theories.

Truth hurts! Without considering race, there’s no other basis for selecting applicants. With race-conscious admissions, a consistent racial quota is achieved, as highlighted in FCPS news releases for last four years since admission change. There’s no hiding the manipulation of racial representation.

If you have any evidence that shows this is going on you could win a multimillion dollar lawsuit against the county since this is extremely illegal.

That's not what happened.

They changed the admissions policy to reduce merit and increase randomness.
This leads to an incoming class that looks a lot like a cross section of the applicant pool.

A merit based system will disproportionately select asians.
A more random system will select students somewhat proportionally. This is why we see a surge in white students, fairfax is predominantly white.

Is 36% predominantly? It is not mainly or for the most part any specific race.

Fairfax is 53% white.

The pool of applicants is about 36% white.

But tj is not predominantly white because white kids are not as likely to apply as asian kids.
