Let's do a thought experiment.

Prior to the recent admissions changes, year over year the demographic at TJ was basically:

73% Asian, 19% white, 5% multiracial (which usually means Asian and white), 2% Hispanic, 1% Black.

Let's pretend that the School Board implemented a policy that resulted in a demographic of:

54% Asian, 39% white, 5% multiracial, 2% Hispanic, 1% Black.

There is [b]absolutely no chance[/b] that FCPS - or anyone in the pro-reform column - would have considered those changes successful. [b]ABSOLUTELY NONE[/b].

What actually happened was that FCPS implemented a policy that resulted in:

54% Asian, 22% white, 5% multiracial, 11% Hispanic, 7% Black.

If you read the above data and conjecture, and your conclusions remain:

1) TJ reform is solely about reducing the Asian population, OR
2) TJ reform is about increasing the white population;

... then there's nothing that I or anyone else can do to help you. Your delusions are baked in and you might as well put on your red hat or your puffy vest.

The fact that it [i]affects[/i] you doesn't mean it's [i]about[/i] you..[/quote]
So basically you agreed that FCPS had a predetermined racial composition in mind before carrying out the reform? We're on the same page then because we all agree FCPS' TJ reform was based on race.[/quote]
