[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Riddle me this. If TC is so amazing, why will ACPS not allow a cohort of kids to attend TJ, specifically citing "brain drain"? 5-10 kids a year is brain drain? Seems like they need every single literate kid they can get. [/quote] I don't agree with ACPS's bar on TJHSST. But, the rationale is that if 20-30 students from Alexandria go there instead of TCW, they will not be able to justify offering the number of classes/sections per course of advanced/honors and AP they do now. As a result, the educational opportunities of the top 100-150 students at TCW would be impacted. Losing a class/section would mean that scheduling conflicts would limit what those other students could take. [/quote]
