[quote=Anonymous]We are in a somewhat similiar boat in the Franconia-Twain-Edison pyramid. Our kids are the same age and we just bought a nice single family house and can't understand why our school system is deemed so poor. We are surrounded by nice single family homes in the $700k-$1 million range and townhouses in the $500k range. We are new to the area but from what I gather, many wealthier families send their children to private school and/or move by the time the children are in junior high/high school. I think if they are smart enough, they test into GT centers and eventually attend TJ. I have not met one person in the area who actually attended or currently attends TJ even though we live so close to this school. This probably has more to do with the fact that my kids are under age 5 so we don't know many high schoolers.[/quote]
