[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will confer confidence and open doors like no other school in this region can. It is a valuable badge to have in the wallet for a lifetime. [/quote] UVA rejects tons of kids from TJ. It is better to be at the top of your local high school than middle of the road at TJ. My son is advanced, has a very high IQ, loves STEM and has received two major science awards. He is in 6th grade and three teachers have already mentioned TJ, but I would NEVER let him go there. First because there will be tons of other kids like him there and he will have to work too hard to be top. I want him to continue to play his sports and enjoy high school. At our local high school he can take advanced classes, play sports and excel without all the TJ pressure. Second, I don't like the demographics at TJ. I want him to go to a more diverse school, like his current elementary. [/quote]
