[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The principal at Glasgow is a former AP at TJHSST. I think people thought he’d work some miracles and boost the school’s academic profile, but that hasn’t happened. Glasgow is close to TJ, but sends few kids there. It’s a very big school with grades 6-8 and a lot of kids with issues.[/quote] He is also a former administrator at Justice HS (formerly JEB Stuart) and believes strongly in what's going on over there as it's the public school that Glasgow feeds - and to their credit, Justice has come leaps and bounds from where it was 10 years ago. TJ is also not especially attractive to Latinx and Black students even when accepted as the numbers there are so staggeringly low. Kids want to go to school with kids who look like them. Sort of a chicken and egg problem - the school would have more success retaining the under-represented minorities who get in....if they had more success retaining the under-represented minorities who get in.[/quote]
