[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There aren't that many students that apply from FCCPS. And it is not uncommon that at least one of the accepted students goes and then returns to FCCPS before 10th grade.[/quote] Do you know why?[/quote] FCCPS parent; what I have heard is that they really don't like the social scene there. A lot of kids already know each other, understandably. The school cliques seem very split up based on race. A very cutthroat environment, which makes sense, since those kids can't ALL be accepted to the elite colleges that they would be accepted to if they stayed at their regular school and graduated in the top 1% of students. At TJ, they might just be in the top 40% of students - not good enough to even go to UVA.[/quote]
