[quote=Anonymous]Success is relative. There are so many smart kids at TJ that a kid who was one of the top 10 students at his middle school may end up being lower half of the class at TJ if you focus on just grades or such. Happy? Kids who do more than just study. Kids who play sports, sing in the choir, work on the newspaper, participate in Model UN, have STEM activities they truly enjoy. Kids who enjoy intellectual challenges and are not overly concerned about grades -- e.g., would rather have a hard teacher and get a lower grade but learn more in an interesting class than have an easier teacher but not learn as much. Those are the kinds of kids who I believe are happy at TJ. [/quote]
