[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's public elementary school teacher is a TJ grad.[/quote] Is this supposed to signal some kind of failure on the part of the TJ grad? You are lucky to have a well-educated teacher. [/quote] You are interpreting this incorrectly. The point is with the near obsession to enter TJ and other similar programs, the reality is that TJ graduates may well end up in careers that do not require a TJ type of education to qualify. It is not a knock on being an elementary school teacher or any other profession. I don't have concrete statistics to prove it but my hunch is that many TJ graduates end up in colleges and jobs that they could just as easily have got with an education from any decent public school. It is not a knock on TJ either because it is a just a great school. My son went there and it is the best thing that happened to him in terms of his education.[/quote]
