[quote=Anonymous]That's the name that a local politician from Fairfax County suggests might be more appropriate for TJ now - the "Herndon-Falls Church Alternative School for the Gifted and Wealthy" (apparently referring to the number of TJ students who come from Carson and Longfellow, the smart kids who are admitted, and the very low number of lower-income students at the school). http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/news/2015/apr/22/thomas-jefferson-class-2019-70-asian-16-black/ I think they probably have to keep calling the school TJ now that we've paid God-knows how much for its very own Rotunda there. But is this a bellweather of increasing political pressure to diversify the student body or convert TJ back into a neighborhood school?
