[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am concerned that a state legislator has proposed a bill about  TJ admissions that was written by the Coalition for TJ.  It would great to have a neutral approach, not a partisan one.[/quote]

And, this was written as a reaction to what our SB did last year--I think.

And, FCPS has put a statement against this bill on their website--which I find troubling.  Claiming that TJ is #1 is kind of interesting as we have yet to see the results of the changes.

I find this too political to be on a public school system's website.[/quote]

They must have known that the plaintiffs in the TJ litigation were going to release all those damning documents yesterday and wanted to come out swinging.  It's not like Davis's bill was going to get enacted for quite some time, if ever.

But, yes, whether you view it as too political or just legal maneuvering, it's not the sort of thing FCPS should be featuring this prominently on their web site.  It just underscores how much time they spend obsessing over TJ and how little time they spend on other things that also ought to matter. [/quote]
