Yes, please![/quote]

Yeah, good idea. Someone should start a new thread.

1) Cooper
2) Longfellow
3) Thoreau
4) Rocky Run
5) Frost
6) Irving
7j Lake Braddock

Longfellow is superior to Cooper.[/quote]

+1.

Nearly twice as many Longfellow students earn admission to TJ as compared to Cooper:

All FCPS middle schools are represented in the Class of 2029:

Longfellow Middle School - 48

Cooper Middle School - 25
Frost Middle School - 19
Katherine Johnson Middle School - 14
Kilmer Middle School - 13
Lake Braddock Middle School - 17
Rocky Run Middle School - 22[/quote]

Why is this the indicator of “good”?  I have no desire for my kids to go to TJ. Many people don’t. And it’s not because they aren’t smart enough. [/quote]

Because it is directly related to the strength of peers, which is the metric parents use to assess schools. It also points out that some school are punching below or over their weight. Notably Irving MS historically sends less than 10 every year yet tends to be trumpeted quite often as a better option than Lake Braddock.[/quote]
