[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You cannot have "Base HS is not enough, and not meeting my kids needs" and "Why is TJ so much harder than base HS?"[/quote] People have a gross misunderstanding of the benefits of TJ and why you would want to go there. Going to TJ will not help your kid if they are not ready for it. Sending unprepared kids to TJ is not doing them any favors. That first year we saw a lot of freshmen (the conservative estimates on this board were ~40) drop out before the beginning of their sophomore year. Since then we have seen more remediation, more intervention and a mandatory counseling session before you were returned to your base school. It is unconscionable how we are using these poor unprepared kids for a social experiment aimed at making it look like there isn't a racial achievement gap.[/quote]
