[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is smart but socially quiet and stays in the background. How is TJ grads in terms of developing soft skills such as communication and leadership? Does the focus on STEM take away from all around development? Parents of TJ grads or current students please share[/quote] Honestly it's a bit of the opposite for a lot of stem centric kids. The highly social kids are frequently brought kids that coasted through a normal curriculum that have to devote a lot more time on studies at TJ and take a step back socially to take 3 steps forward academically. Some of the kids that are doing math and science on their own just because they like it finds a community of like minded kids and they can really blossom socially. [/quote]
