Bonitatibus has a computer science background.

Maybe for a change you can try to post something truthful?



She has a what?

It says she graduated from indiana university of pennsylvania in communications education.

Nothing about computer science, english or math. I'm not saying you need a degree to teach those subjects at the high school level but just saying you have a background in computer science doesn't make it so.

I think she is perfectly well qualified to be a principal of a base school but TJ needs a principal that understands gifted education and why it is not a waste of taxpayer money like so many on DCUM seem to think.



If you can say that he “has a STEM background”, then you can say that about her as well.

Both studied STEM in college; both went directly into teaching; both taught math in the past.

He did more STEM in college but that doesn’t mean she did zero.


Does a college student who takes a required distributional course in "physics for poets" count as studying STEM in college by your definition?


She did enough to be qualified to teach math and has mentioned her background in computer science in college.

Is she the STEMiest person out there? No. But she does have a “STEM background” if we are considering his background to be a “STEM background” (AKA studied and taught STEM topics decades ago).


Looks like you are having a hard time accepting it. But FCPS is letting her go due to poor performance.


They didn’t let her go. She received a promotion.

I have no problem with the transition - Mukai sounds great. I just hate liars.

Moved to a back office role, no one hears about or cares. Just glad TJ is turning the corner with qualified leadership.



Bonitatibus is qualified.



She has lost the confidence of the students, the faculty and the parents. She could no longer be effective in her role. She chose political alignment with the FCPS board over the mission of the school.


#fakenews She was a great principal who did great things for TJ and the county.


She facilitated a push to change admission standards that discriminated against asians.
Asians constituted the overwhelming majority of her students and families.
The asians at at TJ either hate her or hate their own race.


Fake news from RWNJ trolls.

No discrimination.

Many Asian people, including TJ students and alum, support the change.

A lot of TJ parents and alumni are not happy with the racial discrimination that drove the change in the admissions process.

There is plenty of merit.

He can’t change the admissions policy.

These are mostly boba liberals that somehow feel responsible for slavery and segregation. Or they want to virtue signal like they are white.

Sorry, Bonita was let go, or shown the door, as they say! A new principal has been brought in to restore respect at TJ, and that's going to depend on the students' hard work, mostly Asian students!


Just read the quote above again... No wonder why some people cannot stand some "Asian" folks! This lady is a "bad" example!

DP.

True, he cannot change the policy and I don't think he should tilt at windmills to try and change admissions.

However he can provide the under-performing students with a more honest assessment of their chances of success at TJ instead of trying to convince them to gut it out.

40 years ago it was the children of jewish immigrants. 20 years ago, asian meant the children of east asian immigrants, now it largely means the children of south asian immigrants.

Neither of us can predict which immigrant group will be flooding the halls of selective schools.
The immigrant kids are hungrier than our kids.
They always will be.

I see how hard the indian kids work and i can't believe the way people on this board talk about those children.

DC is a fairly recent TJ alum. Said he’d never give a dime to TJ while Bonitatibus was still there.

I know a few alumni at jane street and they are directing corporate donations towards TJ, especially for the academic competitions so that they aren't "pay to play"

It's so laughable really. I mean the school is majority Asian. Asian enrollment is at a historic high and the largest beneficiaries of the change were again Asians.

That's fake. The new system was the only merit in years since previously people were buying the test.
