FCPS proudly issues a TJ admissions news release each year that highlights the overwhelming talent of Asian students who qualify for the rigor of TJ. According to FCPS school profiles, Asian students are among the hardest working, and schools with a high percentage of Asian students tend to rank higher.
Even with the current racially influenced admissions process, FCPS demonstrates that to form a TJ class capable of meeting the required rigor, a minimum of 300+ Asian students is essential, as that’s where the advanced STEM talent lies. As FCPS excluded Asian applicants from the 100 seat expansion quota, the representation of non-Asian groups increased, along with a significant rise in the lowest level Math 1 enrollment, from 17 the previous year to over 120+ immediately after admission change.
You can whine all you want falsely labeling Asian students as prepping, test buying, wealthy feeders, tiger parenting, etc... but that is not how FCPS views their advanced stem talent.
It's a race blind process.
Stop lying.
No one except you is lying. Your own data chart shows the Asian applicants were excluded from the 100 seat expansion quota, which makes it a race aware process.
No kids weren't "excluded".
There is no mechanism for excluding kids by race.
This is what systemic racism looks like.
They engineer rules to create specific racial results and try to tell everyone that it's not racist.
There are no mechanisms for racial discrimination.
Asian students weren’t negatively impacted. There are
still just as many Asian students at TJ today.
That's the problem, should have gone up proportionally with seat expansion. Asians were excluded from expanded 100 seat quota. Race based exclusion occurred.
The entire reason for the seat expansion was to try to make room for more kids that didn’t traditionally go there as much while mitigating impact on existing over represented groups. When you start out at 70% of the student body it’s not reasonable to expect to keep climbing that figure.
You may find it hard to understand but in this country this 'make room' for other races by excluding students of one particular race is called racial manipulation. It takes multiple attempts to prove such visible systematic racism in courts.
Do you have any evidence to support this theory? What you're claiming is highly illegal, and if it were remotely true, the courts would stop it! I have to assume this is just another conspiracy theory with no factual basis.
Anything other than accepting your entitlement is illegal, is racist, is bigoted. If you want to live in the pits, it's your choice. We're not going into the pits with you.
I agree it seems crazy that anyone would make these baseless claims of anti-Asian bias when
1) It's been repeatedly shown that Asian enrollment at TJ is at an all-time high
2) low-income Asians were the largest beneficiary of the admission changes
3) admission is race-blind for decades
FCPS says Asian American students qualify for TJ in overwhelming numbers. Why?
That’s great if large numbers of Asian Americans are accepted via the race-blind process, as they have for years.
What’s the problem with that?
The process is so bad that most of the asians there don't even belong there.
So many nay sayers! But the asian americans are so absolutely adored and venerated by FCPS that they are admitted in overwhelming numbers. Agree the process is bad and against merit.
It's picking random asians.
So many of the kids getting in are real head scratchers, including the asians.
Anyone from one of the feeder schools can probably think of at least one kid from their school that got in that didn't really seem like they were particularly qualified.
They were as likely to be asian as anything else.
This system does not select for merit very well.
