[quote=Anonymous]Agreed. What percentages of these schools in total are even applying? Next year likely Kilmer and Jackson will go down and Thoreau and Cooper will go up for applicants. Isn't Franklin and Lanier also going up and either Rocky Run or Carson going down? I don't live out that way, but remember a boundary shift/AAP shift out there. Except for Carson, I really don't see what the big deal is about TJ. Each of these schools has about 800-1200 8th graders and if only 50 or less is getting into TJ from any of the other schools, that still leaves 800 students from any middle school in Fairfax not going to TJ. Pretty sure a bright kid can find friends in any of these schools. Stop pigeon holing people. Especially when commute is such a big deal here.
