This says rejecting all foreign students who enter after 7th. WaPo should be all over the story about people moving from another country to attend TJ. [/quote]

I would love to see the stats for just how many kids accepted to TJ were not in FCPS at all prior to 7th grade.  It's a huge problem if an FCPS elementary and middle school education puts you at a significant disadvantage for TJ admission relative to foreign kids and private school kids (who are often ahead in math relative to FCPS kids).[/quote]

I wouldnt be surprised at all to see higher rates of foreign and private students making the cut. The way people are pushing to [u]reduce[/u] [b]improve[/b] standards for AAP and TJ to increase enrollment of [u]less qualified[/u][b]diverse types of[/b] students, other jurisdictions and privates will absolutely surpass FCPS elementary kids in [u]math and science[/u] [b]test-taking ability[/b][/quote]

Fixed it for you[/quote]
