[quote=Anonymous]I have a TJ sophomore who is really enjoying his TJ experience. You have to go for the right reasons—a great peer group, access to educational opportunities that may not be available elsewhere, a strong interest in STEM, great extracurriculars, etc. You also have to be willing to work hard to do well, but try to avoid being outwardly competitive—having the right attitude is really important. As for college admissions, don’t go to TJ for that reason—you’ll never know if it will be an advantage or disadvantage. Let your kid apply and, if he gets in, go to the admitted student night to see if it’s a good fit. Whatever you do, don’t pressure him to go—let him make his own choice. I will say this, though—if you go for the right reasons, TJ can really be a great high school experience. [/quote]
