According to the website, a waitpool of students will be created to offer additional students an opportunity to attend TJHSST when admitted applicants decline the offer of admission. Offers of admissions to students who have accepted to stay in the waitpool will be provided to the highest evaluated students remaining in the waitpool. Waitpool offers will continue to be made until all seats have been filled or until the beginning of the school year, which occurs first.
When is the wait going to be over
feel tired
Given the a,eup of the class, next year is going to be a clusterf*ck for TJ freshman. I would not send a kid, period. TJ is hard enough when they don’t have 40ish ELL kids and 100 FARMS kids— all of whom missed most of 8th grade. The teachers there are going to have kids who literally don’t understand the classes and not be inclined to wait for the short bus to keep up.
If you have a good base HS, send your kid there. It’s stable at least. And they will have a ton of kids drop back. You can re-evaluate sophomore year. But given the numbers, Langley, McLean, Oakton, Chantilly, Madison, Woodson, etc are likely to be much more rigorous.
It says something that the only admit on here was HHS— which never send s anyone. (Ahhmmm “underrepresented school). I’m just issued that after the end of freshman year and most of sophomore year online, my junio heads back to 4 APs, a post AP— and this mess. Not fair to ruin things for kids already there.
