[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My kid does activities that he enjoys, Scouts, sports, math competitions, because he likes them. If they help him get into a school like TJ, awesome. If they don't but he enjoyed them while he was doing them, great. TJ or an amazing college down the line, would be a wonderful bonus. But he is doing what he is doing because he enjoys it and it is a part of who he is as a person not because he is trying to build a resume. [/quote] Why are you even opining on the TJ threads when your kid is only a 4th grader? You have zero understanding of what it takes to excel in 7th and 8th grade STEM extracurriculars, just how much students can push themselves and avail themselves of resources, and what it even means when some of these kids are qualifying for JMO in 8th, making Mathcounts nationals top 12 in 8th, or winning national Science Olympiad awards. You don't have experience in middle school AAP coursework, middle school math tracks, or much of anything in FCPS middle schools. You're embarrassing yourself by even thinking that you have anything valuable to contribute in these threads. [/quote] +1[/quote]
