[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Longfellow also has more students than many other middle schools in the county. These numbers would be a lot more useful in percentages. [/quote] I don't know the number of 8th graders at these schools last year. It's hard to tell because FCPS reports the number of non-AAP 7th and 8th graders separately, but then lumps all the AAP kids together. However, here are the TJ admissions as a percentage of all students (7th and 8th AAP and non-AAP) at the schools as of June 2012: Carson 5.7% Longfellow 5.4% Rocky Run 5.1% Kilmer 3.8% Frost 1.8% Jackson 1.7% Lake Braddock 1.6% Twain 1.1% The main impact of looking at percentages vs. raw numbers is that Rocky Run, which is smaller than all the other schools except for Twain, looks better and Lake Braddock, which is the biggest MS in the county, looks worse.
