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]

You'd better hope your Longfellow kid gets into TJ because McLean HS is falling apart and dropping in the rankings.  It had a good principal but now she's gone, too.  [/quote]

That’s because Langley is such an amazing school that less people apply to TJ.  [/quote]

Last year there were 133 kids at TJ from the McLean pyramid (Longfellow) and 116 kids from the Langley pyramid (Cooper).  Not a big difference.

That averages to 33 kids per year from Longfellow and 29 from Cooper.  So it looks like Longfellow had particularly strong TJ admissions last year while Cooper was down slightly.  Also, keep in mind that Longfellow also has a larger enrollment than Cooper, despite the boundary changes from 2021.  Last year Cooper finished the year with 1019 students while Longfellow had 1236.
