[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably TJ could be an option?[/quote]

Agree, Why not TJ.[/quote]

OP here, lol that would be ideal. My AAP DC is naturally gifted and we haven’t spent money on math and ELA tutoring from 5 years of age. It’s unlike he stands a chance compared to his peers who have been trained since age 5 in math & ela and are doing Algebra 2/Geometry in Grade 7. My second Non AAP will never cope in TJ environment. So there is a strong need for a good base HS school. [/quote]

You want to believe other kids have been trained since age 5 because you do not want to admit your kids are not so good.[/quote]

Every child has its own unique strengths. I just don’t understand why parents tutor their kids so early to stay competitive. In our current MS/HS only 5% of the kids are in Algebra 1(25/475) in 7th grade. All these kids were tutored from a very young age and as early as 5 yrs. [/quote]

Sounds like you're coming from a weak school district and your kids might be in for a bit of an academic shock when they start school here. You might want to look at schools that are less intense than Langley and McLean. The Vienna schools have excellent reputations.[/quote]
