[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only one person knows about these schools?[/quote] Can't speak to Long Branch. TJ is ok. A number of outstanding teachers, especially in English and social studies, some in math. I wouldn't be lured solely for the IB program, though it does provide more foreign language opportunities. The principal is average, not outstanding or particularly impressive. Great head of counseling (if she's still there) and a good school psychologist. Guidance counselors - I've only had experience with two. One was far better than the other. Lots of socio-economic diversity. Not a robust PTA but those who step forward are very hardworking and committed volunteers. Not the strongest music and arts program in the system; but every school has its shining stars regardless. Until this year, not on the block schedule all the other middle schools are on; but I believe that is changing next year. [/quote]
