[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As another example, as of about 2012, when I tried to call the school's attention to it, no one at Cooper claimed to have heard of this math program held at TJ every year (for many years) called the Intermediate Math Open which is a FUN thing, for any middle school in the area (private or public). It has nothing to do with TJ admissions or AAP. It is about making math fun. Every school gets invited. It set a great tone for DC's time at Longfellow to get invited. But there has to be a teacher willing to spend part of a Saturday at TJ. I think the invitation may have gotten filed in the circular file at Cooper though I am certain they are at least 7 kids interested enough to attend from Cooper.  It's not the kids -they may not have even been told about the opportunity. The organization (and enough effort and discipline to sustain it) has to come from the school.

Zombie update:

Cooper attended TJIMO this year and was the biggest performing VA middle school.
(High performing at TJIMO is slightly strange -- it's aimed at novices, and hyper advanced post-Geometry students are not invited)[/quote]

Since they don't form school teams, how was it that Cooper did so well? [/quote]

Individual Round awards. [/quote]
