[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymou[b]s]It fundamentally repurposes TJHSST from a high school intended to serve the most talented STEM students to a demonstration project that an almost random group of county students (a 3.5 GPA isn't tough to pull off in middle school) can take STEM classes.[/b] Remind us again why we really need this school? There's a very good chance Langley will test higher than this version of TJ. [/quote] The bolded is true. And it’s sad. What a waste of a gold standard program that provides a wonderfully challenging education to those who are ready and willing for it. And changes only made because white applications were dwindling since they didn’t want to go to school with Asian American kids. Black and Hispanic kids have aways been underrepresented but this proposal comes to appease white families. See the podcast Nice, White Families, episode 3.[/quote]
