Timeline for TJ case?

Anonymous
If you admit by lottery, TJ teachers will leave in droves. They chose to work at TJ for high level teaching. Or they could teach at base schools. They will never say this publicly of course. There is no stomach for a lottery. Youngkin has already nixed it.

I get that you want to believe this, but many might be happier since the students would have comparable talent but a lot fewer of the privleged high-pressure tiger parents.

Why?

By the way - no they shouldn't. The system cannot afford any further inputs at this point.


Just take the kids with 4.0's and the the ones who got the science question right. That will probably still be more than can be admitted. So then do lottery. Then spend the remaining time getting admissions right next year, instead of fighting in court. What a waste of time and resources!


Who started this whole mess?

- oh right. Radical leftist progressives.


Ehh, they changed the admissions process. That happens all the time. No one was required to contest it.


A lot of parents weren't happy that it was harder to game admissions.

They would also need to remove the 1.5% per middle school allocation.

If yiu are reading the judges order in plain language, they cannot use anything that was changed in the fall of 2020.

I would love to see them keep the Special Education and Economically Disadvantaged experience factors.

I would love to see them scrap the 1.5% and just divide all the seats evenly per capita from all of the middle schools in FCPS

Asian prospective TJ students are already avoiding TJ in droves.

The court has validated their belief that the School Board and Dr. Brabrand are racist towards Asian people. Most of those who can afford it are opting for private school.

Those that can get in plus afford it are few in number right now. As Asians grow in number and wealth, private HSs are also going to start capping Asians more. They have always preferred a diverse mix with a large URM number.

You seem to really hate Asians.

That's right. Just sit in the corner like good children and take your punishment for being too successful. We radical leftists know what is good for you and everyone else as we just need to feel self righteous and superior.


I'll be honest... we're not that concerned with what's best for YOU, because there are a lot more people than just YOU to consider.

We are more concerned with what's best for TJ. And we have enough experience to know that pretty well.

More non-falsifiable nonsense.

That's false. If you read the judge's order in plain language, they cannot use the exact process that existed in the fall of 2020.

We'll see. The application numbers will bear out whether or not this is true but I'll bet you'll have about 1,500 Asian applicants just like you always have.

Do they have to have approval from the judge on a new plan or can they modify it just a little bit? Why can't they just increase the per middle school allocation to 2 or 3% skewing the demographics even more?
