I only meant the writing was treacle and verbose. I would expect better.

This comment one makes the rest if what he says unbelievable: "...but a lot of the people I met during college would look at me in awe (and maybe a tinge of envy) after I mentioned where I went to high school. I mean, we both ended up at the same college, but here they were treating me like some sort of demi-god..."

You really think other 18, 19, 20, and 21 year olds were awed by where he went to high school? Why was it even coming up? In college did anyone ask you where you went to high school? Garbage

I know, right?! "Demi-god"? Get real!

Point is that generally no one does care about their HS once they graduate. TJ and a few others are different. Alums stay involved, they donate money, they look out for each other, they have a jobs network that is like the usual college alum jobs network ... for a high school ...

+1000.

They need an alumni network to help them cope with the fact that no one else is as impressed with them as they are of themselves. Helps when they fail or plateau later in life.

This post sounds so juvenile and petty, with a twinge of jealousy...why such hate?

I had a kid that attended TJ and another declined and attended base school, I support both kids' decisions so I don't have any bias either way.

These TJ haters hate the fact that we have the best high school in the county and their kids are too dumb or too lazy or both to attend this school.
