[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If the school board hadn’t launched this rushed and half-baked admissions change (with no public hearing), none of this PTSA drama would have happened.[/b]  I don’t condone the behavior of many of the parties but the PTSA has been a wonderful group of very committed parent volunteers who spend many more hours volunteering to support TJ and its students than the parents at our base school.

Completely false. The leaders of the Coalition 4 TJ will stop at nothing to fight any change that could possibly limit the number of Asian students at the school. It doesn't matter what change the admissions office would have made - and making no change in a COVID year was not an option.

Making a change in the midst of Covid came across as terribly opportunistic, as if the School Board wanted to take advantage of the circumstances to ram through changes in TJ admissions at a time when there could not be in-person meetings or public hearings.

The fact that they spent 4-5 months jerking everyone around last year when they should have focused on shoring up their inadequate IT systems, paying attention to their shitty facilities so that schools would be safe for students upon return, and mitigating the obvious negative impact of distance learning on the county's most vulnerable kids speaks volumes to how out of touch these clowns are.

They should all be replaced in 2023, if not sooner. [/quote]

They would have spent far less time “jerking everyone around” had there been no lawsuits filed as a result of the admissions changes. And it was a non-starter to leave the status quo intact given that they had no way of assessing any exam fairly. At a bare minimum they would have had to come up with something for this year.[/quote]
