Teaching does not play a big part. It plays a relatively small part. This has been noted over and over again by anyone who knows anything about TJ, and that includes the teachers themselves. they will tell you that what distinguishes this school from others with smart kids is that these kids are extremely motivated - personally - to excell academically.  The choice of the word "environment" simply is redundant of this fact since these kids create the environment. They will be having discussions of the finer points of scientific learning out in the hallways. [/quote]

"Anyone who knows anything about TJ"?  Grabbing the barf bag now.

Your post exemplifies why the NAACP filed the complaint.  They are tired of having their kids shut out while a few others dine on educational caviar.

Are you suggesting TJ needs to admit more students?  That obviously would not work since the facility cannot accommodate that many students. But here is something that could work. Turn every high school into a TJ. Set a high standard for student performance, except more from the kids, create and promote a culture of academic excellence in every school...  [/quote]
