[quote=Anonymous]Should but they don’t. And we all know that the level of instruction and available classes is totally different for lower SES schools then Higher SES schools. So that kid who has had better classes in ES and MS and better options at HS has every right to be disappointed they were not accepted into TJ. I get being disappointed but they will have better options at their higher SES HS then the kids from Lewis and Mt. Vernon and Herndon High. And that doesn’t change the fact that many kids who work hard are not going to be accepted into top schools because there are not enough slots for all of those kids. And that is the same for jobs and promotions. You need to learn to deal with the fact that you can work hard and not get what you want. How you frame that is important. If you want to teach your kid to blame other people for not being accepted and be disgruntled that they have to settle for an excellent HS, that is on you. [/quote]
