[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for setting me straight about the school! My kid loves STEM and was thinking about applying to TJ (he is only in 6th now) but I worry about the stress aspect of it. Would you say that Tech gives somewhat similar educational opportunities with less stress?[/quote] I've known kids who've gone to both and AT is definitely less stressful. It seems to me AT is more practical-focused, hands-on education while still being college prep. It's challenging classes but not as advanced coursework as TJ. Because of the dual-enrollment focus it appeals more to students who are focused on going to in-state schools. You can graduate with an AA degree and then just do 2 years at a VA college to get your bachelors.[/quote]
