[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am hopeful that the new principal can keep the low stress environment without abandoning rigor.[/quote]

The previous principal did an excellent job maintaining high standards while reducing the test prep cheaters, which helped with the toxicity.[/quote]

[b]Test prep is not cheating.[/b]
Studying is not cheating.
Nobody believes that it is.
Not even you.  
Only cheating is cheating.
You should stop denigrating the hard work and effort of some kids just because you want opportunity for other kids.

I think Bonitatibus was focused on mental health especially in light of the two suicides during her tenure.  I think these may be the first suicides at TJ since its inception and it must have weighed heavy on her as it would on any principal.[/quote]

The test prep has the questions bank, they teach and train your kid strategy on how to answer it, they expose to your kid what the test would similarity be like. 
If you don't like the term of 'cheating' I will call it unfair advantage.

I am agree that studying is not cheating.

Prep is all over. VA state government gives free prep material. But apparently mostly the top TJ feeders are taking advantage of this pepping.
