Now do you all see why there are variations in the numbers for TJ from centers?[/quote]

Great link to nowhere!  [/quote]

I posted this and  just clicked on the link and it works.   This is the information for the statistical report that has to be filed monthly to the state by each school division.   Real stuff not subjective.  What do you mean link to nowhere??  This chart explains why some middle schools feed more students numerically.

I personally know of Latino students rejected in the TJ admission process who are now majoring in engineering.  No student who needs remediation in math should be at that school.  Too many students have significant test prep and afterschooling for their entire academic careers ...the subjective elements like essays and activities skew the process.

FCPS and the school board should analyze which students are having difficulty in math-which middle schools and elementary schools.  If these students are predominantly coming from the same cluster then it's a preparation NOT admission testing problem.  Instruction and breadth of content varies between schools in FCPS far more than it should since it is one school division.
