[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are from Loudoun and chose the Academies offer, as we didnt want to subject our child to the pressure of keeping up with TJ demands and competitive peer group. AoS is quite manageable since it is part time, with most of language, arts, social studies, and sports at base school. [/quote] The demand for TJ is much greater than the 550 spots available. Fairfax should add a second TJ-style school, similar to AOS/AOT.[/quote] LCPS AOS/AET is equivalent to FCPS Academy, which operates from various high schools, allowing students to register for their preferred programs. Initially, AOS/AET also operated from multiple high schools but later consolidated into a single location at its new campus building. As demand surpassed capacity, selective AOS/AET programs began requiring entrance tests. The similar admission schedules and entrance tests led people to compare AOS/AET to TJ, although it is more comparable to FCPS Academy.[/quote]
