[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The purpose of TJ was to prove that FCPS has the best educational system in the country as a public school system. Doing what they are doing now is against every tenet of how public schools can serve all different kinds of students.

Doing what they’re doing plays right into the Devos and the Republicans trap- by chasing “equity” we are lowering the potential of education.

First, why would anyone care about what Trump or Devos thinks?  Second, are you really making the argument with a straight face that the new system wouldn't serve all different kinds of students as compared with the current system?   :lol:  And no, the purpose of TJ was not to prove that FCPS has the best educational system in the country.  It's misinformation like that that is fueling the outrage about the change.  Finally, while you think we are lowering the potential of education, I think we'll be uplifting the potential of a much [b]more diverse cross-section of the FCPS student body[/b], both based on race and SES.

The lottery will produce geographical diversification not racial or SES based on the presentation unless there is a lack of placing all in the bingo ball drawing per FCPS region.  https://www.amazon.com/GSE-Games-Sports-Expert-Professional/dp/B07GPZWCQY/ref=asc_df_B07GPZWCQY/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=242012294092&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9224636731074200708&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9008140&hvtargid=pla-525575542236&psc=1  or a produce box from a local Giant with apps inside and shuffled.

TJ was part of the magnet school movement and a convenient way to use an under capacity building that otherwise would have been closed. [b] Now it should revert to a base school with an academy.[/b]  FPAC [Facilites Planning Advisory Council]  came up with needing a magnet school recently in the Richmond Highway Corridor as a way to fill 2 under capacity high schools.  Fairfax County uses schools as bragging rights to attract companies and employees to the area.  Guess what?  Many who relocate here from other areas with great public school districts gag when the student is actually in FCPS.  Some Mclean area elementary schools started using AAP for all under Strauss.
