Embarrassing numbers for Madison.[/quote]

Actually, it is not.  TJ siphons of the much of the cream.  Certainly, diluting the top 10% of every HS in FCPS.  And yet, 22% of the students ended up at very respectable to top colleges.  If I added the other VA state schools,

VCU was 609 Accepted, 190 attend;
Radford, 338, 84
ODU, 214, 38
Mary Washingtion, 414, 82
Longwood,  259, 67
JMU,  804, 236
GMU, 692, 189
CNU, 422,  82

And some of these students have GPAs that are under 3.0/would have been kicked out of TJ.

JMHS is about as good as you can get for a school with open admissions.

23% go to schools of VT or better; more
696 students/nearly 20% went to the top three state schools; You get a great education at any of those three schools.

This is good for an open enrollment HS.

I am underwhelmed by Madison's college acceptances. One would expect much better results from one of the top high schools in one of the best school districts in the country with very high SES student population.[/quote]
