[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's even more telling is that none of the DC schools (public, private or charter) have produced more than a single USAMO qualifier in over five years. In a city that has a fairly large contingent of highly educated parents, one would think that the number should be higher by chance alone.[/quote] We don't have Regeneron Winners either. There does need to be some institutional initiative for things like USAMO or Regeneron to happen. Certainly a school like TJ has an administration and teachers that care about things like this and create the framework for this to happen. I know Regeneron in particular needs the school to have a scientific facts committee, faculty sponsors, etc. A kid can't just have a great idea and enter the main competition that gets all the press every year.
