[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An inherent problem at a school where all the kids are smart is the high levels of stress that come with continuing that level of 'being the best' when everyone is the 'best'. If you want your kids in an environment where they are stressed out to stay ahead, then TJ might be a good placement for your child. The opposite of that thought is that your child is stimulated in ways they would not otherwise be in a 'regular' HS. But, with that, comes stress. Pressure cooker High[/quote] Have you talked with any high schoolers lately? Any TJ kids? Any kids from private, MoCo or FCPS high schools? You may want to before you draw conclusions for/about them. [/quote] I've spoken to teachers who happen to be friends from TJ, FFx county schools and Mo Co schools. So, yes, I draw this conclusion. Do YOU know anyone who goes to or teaches at TJ? Please enlighten me or are you just all smarty pants? Actually, what is your point? [/quote]
