[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I demand equal representation in sports! My asian kids are entitled to a spot in the basketball or football teams even though they are probably not as good as your white or black kids!

If one demands TJ's makeup to reflect the general population then it should not stop at TJ, but should encompass every single program in FCPS, including but not limited to sports.  [/quote]

Asian kids are pretty well represented in sports in FCPS. Tennis, track, swim/dive, LAX, soccer-- all have plenty of Asian kids at our base school. Probably close to representing their population in the school.  They may not be as represented in football and basketball, but are they trying out for these sports?   TJ football only had 9 freshman this year.  They are looking at not being able to field a team next year.  So, Asian kids certainly are not trying out for football at TJ. No one is.  If there are 200 Asian kids trying out for a FCPS football team, and only 8 make it, like the AA or FARMS or Hispanic numbers at TJ, you might be on to something.  Can you find a school where this is happening?  My strong guess is no. [/quote]
