These school administrators and teachers who participated in the scheme to deprive students of their accomplishments are guilty of a criminal offense.

These awards have monetary value and to withhold them is theft. I hope they are prosecuted.


Equity is not socialism. Socialism is when government controls the means of production.

You really shouldn't use terms you don't understand. You appear to neither understand "equity" nor "socialism."

*PSAT scores were NOT withheld

*The cutoff score for Commended National Merit students is easy to find because it's the same for everyone in the country.

*Students also receive direct communication at their home address from the National Merit Corporation

*I guarantee you that no student was not admitted to a college because they didn't put that they were a National Merit Commended Scholar on their common app. As other PPs have noted, there's only room for 5 awards on the Common App and most kids use those spaces for other, more prestigious awards.

I know some of these parents quoted in the news articles, and as a fellow TJ parent, I am so embarrassed for them. These people claim to care so much about their kids, when all they're doing is harming them.

It is almost as if the administration of TJHS wanted to punish these students for being too successful. I hope the parents of these kids successfully sue the pants off of the Fairfax Public School System.

They already actively prevented highly qualified candidates from being allowed to attend TJ in favor of much less qualified candidates in the name of equity when they changed the admittance policies to reduce the number of Asian & White students that were enrolled for the 2021-22 school year.

I considered allowing my child to apply, but given the Fairfax Public School System' hostility to certain demographics, in general, & Bonataibus' self-proclaimed personal prejudices against the same groups, coupled with the corresponding reduction in the academic standards necessary to facilitate the success of the less qualified student body that was admitted, we determined that it would be most advantageous to my child's academic success to keep them enrolled in their accelerated private school where standards & requirements remain exceedingly high.

I refuse to sacrifice my child's future on the altar of mediocracy & choose to keep them in an environment that rewards hard work & meritocracy.


Commended is not much of an honor. Semi finalists are the ones who get to compete for scholarships. You seem ill informed.

That was a terrible thing to do to the students who earned their award.


I agree. I am disgusted to hear “equal outcome for every student without exception.” It’s not only ridiculous it’s evil. When the former superintendent proposed a “merit lottery” for TJ’s admission process, I thought the stupidity would never be surpassed, I was wrong. Now we’ll have “equal outcome” for our kids. Does anyone here expect “equal outcome” for your own kids?

The kids who got the real awards were notified. This is a bunch of whining over a participation trophy. A TJ student who only gets commended should be embarrassed

It's not "evil." It's a goal. It's rhetorical. It's aspirational.

Anyone who thinks in terms of that somehow costing their own child something is just a despicable piece of human garbage. Imagine being told this and your first concern is "WHAT ABOUT *MY* CHILD? *MY* CHILD IS SPECIAL."

I mean, that's such a twisted and diseased way of thinking.

Equality & equity are two different things.

Equally means that we all play by the same rules, equity means that we all get the same score. Some of this communist thought was brought about by “ everyone gets a trophy” .

You cannot have equal outcomes for every student in any society capitalist or communist.

This is simply a fiction. Can anyone play in the NBA? Should we lower the baskets so that more Filipinos can play the game?

Good for him.

Something needs to be done. We've 'equitied' down to number 17 in the world. Something ain't working.

Totally coordinated.

Absolutely disgusting that she - and Youngkin - continue to use these kids as pawns.



Totally agree. 100%


Youngkin is an idiot.

Asra, though, has been an opportunistic profiteer for decades. She should be investigated for a lot more than this, but I think it's a fine place to start. She has never been held accountable for any of her lies, her targeted attacks, her manipulation of anything and everything she can do to paint herself a victim/activist/advocate/whatever she thinks will put her in the best light at any given moment. Truly just not a good person in any way. And a lunatic to boot.


+1

These are not good people.


I guess Asra has enough of a public profile that Jeff won't care if people attack her personally here, but I will say that I don't consider the folks in control of the TJAAG, the FCDC, or the FCPS School Board to be good people. For the most part, they are conniving politicians who are hypocritical at the core. They blather on about "equity," but it's really just an excuse for old-school, pork-barrel politics intended to benefit them politically at the expense of hardworking Asian families and students.

If they cared about merit, they wouldn't have taken deliberate steps to reduce the number of Asian kids at TJ; if they cared about equity, they would be working fervently to shut down the selective magnet at TJ. But they do not care about either merit or equity, just about throwing their political weight around to "redefine" merit and equity on their own, self-serving terms. There's never been a bigger group of narcissists involved in local issues in Fairfax, and I hope they get the sh*t kicked out of them at the polls this fall.


Is that why you et al keep posting these inane threads?


You sound worried. You should be.


That’s cute. You’re projecting. You saw Rs get crushed in November so now you’re resorting to extreme hysterics over stupid crap.

You’re hurting the TJ community for nothing.



I don't think the mid-term elections for the House and the Senate mean any more than the Republican sweep in 2021 at the state level (Youngkin/Sears/Miyares) when it comes to local elections this fall. Feel free to cherry pick whatever makes you feel less insecure.

Great job to Gov. Youngkin for stepping up for the students.

Heads are going to roll when the investigation is complete, and the school administrators involved in this scheme will be out of jobs for what they did.

DP, but we'd be better off if more people took care of their own kids first and stopped expecting government to engineer "equal outcomes" for all.

And lofty aspirations and slogans are no substitute for competent leadership, as illustrated by the ongoing decline of FCPS.
