ITS SAME -SAME. Why worry?

Theoretically you worry because you would rather the competition not get an edge in the cutting edge technology race. Do you really want other nations to have quantum computers before us? Space weapons? Other unknown next gen tech?

It's a high school curriculum that is public record. If that's the worry, be concerned about foreign grad students at US universities

Shouldn't the person who spearheaded this have registered as a foreign agent?

After all, FCPS ard public government employees.

Where did the money go?

Looks like the school did not get the money. So some how the school sold info, but a non profit got the money. Sounds fishy...

FINALLY! This is the question people should be asking. Also, is info about TJ FCPS’s to sell? TJ is one of the Governor’s schools. FCPS happens to operate it, but the school is really a state school, no? Isn’t that why non-FCPS students are eligible to attend?

Exactly the question - which nonprofit? Who runs it? What happened to the money is the main question.

If you're that curious, pull the 990s. The author could have, but that would require work

That may be true without meaning his information is false.

As someone said on a different thread yesterday, attacking the person sharing the information is an ad hominem fallacy and doesn't make your argument. You have to actually prove that either TJ/people employed at TJ didn't sell this information or prove why it doesn't matter that they did sell this information.

Seriously! Get that money!

Having gone through the article, I'm not really sure why they needed anything other than having Geoff Jones on the board to clone TJ. He was an awesome principal and really made the school into what it was. Just get him to tell you everything and you are golden.

Which begs the question - what was the money really for? How much of it was actually an influence operation going the other way? I really think the TJ curriculum can't be that hard to replicate.

And therein lies the rub. He's published so much crap over the years and distorted so much reality, that I wouldn't trust anything he writes even if it were the truest truth that ever truthed. You can't publish a mountain of crap and then publish a one off that may actually be true and expect the public to all of a sudden take it at face value. How do we know that this is not one more article to add to his crap pile.

It's too bad our own country doesn't want to replicate TJ.

I see nothing wrong with this. It's not like there's some proprietary spy school stuff going down at TJ. It's not nearly as rigorous as other schools in Asia.
