[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "Remedial math" means reviewing subjects that at 2 years ahead instead of 3 years. :lol: [/quote] If even a TJ faculty member uses the term "remedial" then it's awfully pedantic to quibble with it. You can insist on whatever terminology you like, but the point is clear enough: if TJ is supposed to serve those exceptional students who wouldn't be well-served at their base schools (as per the Governor's School charter), then students who do well in more advanced math classes should be admitted rather than students who need review of lower levels of math. The FCPS school board is essentially doing an ed-around on the state Dept. of Education by reconceiving the purpose of TJ (i.e. to mirror the population of the county as a whole rather than to serve the top students), and that cannot stand.[/quote]
