[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Significant achievements would mostly be based on extracurriculars. Some middle schools have excellent parental support for teams and clubs and at other middle schools opportunities for clubs are completely non-existent. Not fair to penalize a kid for attending a school that doesn't offer anything. And lastly teacher recommendations are also completely open to bias. [/quote] The question is about whether they are taking the top students within a school. All these kids would have the same extracurricular options as they are going to the same school. This year, there were some kids who did very well at a statewide level on some of these activities, who were rejected, while kids who were cut from the team were accepted to TJ. [/quote]
