[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Debating the admissions policy is pointless. [b] There are people who feel that as TJ is a Governor's school, its role is to serve the students who are so academically advanced that their needs can't be met in the base school. There are also people who feel like TJ should serve any kid who is slightly above average and claims to like STEM. The sides are never going to see eye to eye. [/b] I feel sorry for the kids who truly needed a school like TJ and now will be bored out of their minds and under-served at their base school. I also feel sorry for the *many* kids who aren't ready for a rigorous school like TJ and may be eaten alive. I hope TJ does everything they can to help those kids, because it's not the kids' faults that they were used as political tools. [/quote] Of course, the former are right about the charter of a Governor's School, and the latter are misguided. https://www.doe.virginia.gov/instruction/governors_school_programs/[/quote] This The new policy has one thing in mind - diversity (by race). TJ is an entirely different school now.[/quote]
