[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jay matthews did not write the most recent front page story, nor the series on Koreans and the addiction for private tutoring.

My tax dollars support TJ, and the charter of the governor's School is that it's supposed to be somewhat representative of the County, even the state. Not sure why PP is so defensive -if the English teachers at TJ are complaining about having to teach remedial English, then something in the admissions formula re: essays and statement has not been graded fairly. TJ will get known as an Asian school, and, trust me PP, it will get shut down in a few years if that happens. Especially if they are accepting kids whose citizenship or residency is temporary or questionable, as it appears they have been.

I don't think it will be shut down. It's a source of great pride for the FCPS, as it should be. You'd shut down the number one high school in the country because it is predominantly Asian? Not gonna happen.

On the other hand it is quite fishy how the Korean embassy has instructions on its website to assist Koreans to get into TJ. I think there is more going on here thana meets the eye.  Some interests, govt./commercial may view it as training ground for future employees to rival the ITT's in India.[/quote]
