[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess, but why does race now become an issue? Shouldn't they just figure out where the problems are with admission and fix it? Then admission would change relative to new criteria, not race. Honestly I never understood the aura of TJ. Is it just a status symbol for them or [b]do people honestly think their local FCPS public high school with ridiculous numbers of AP classes offered these days isn't enough to then go on to a STEM career[/b]?[/quote] The schools with the high hispanic/black populations are IB schools -- so they don't even get access to AP courses to go on to a STEM career.[/quote] Wrong. Hayfield, Falls Church and West Potomac all have high black and/or Hispanic enrollments and are AP schools. And who says IB can't prepare students for a STEM career? [/quote] There are plenty of IB graduates who go on to excellent universities and pursue STEM careers.[/quote]
