[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why? It makes no sense? It's so close to Alexandria. I'm surprised Amazon didn't demand Alexandria participate. Hopefully soon Loudoun will leave freeing up space for Alexandria to join in. That makes much more sense.[/quote] ACPS's non-participation has nothing to do with "space" taken up by other localities. ACPS knows that it's highest-achieving students would bolt for TJ as soon as they have the opportunity, rather than stick around TCW. At least if families interested in TJ move to Fairfax or Arlington, they can at least spin the decisions ("they wanted more space, a larger yard, closer to parents' work, etc") in ways they can't if the student straight-up opt out of TC.
