[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s an idea!  Everyone work hard and actually study.  The best students regardless of race go to TJ.  The new supreme court nominee MS. Jackson is proof the sky is the limit for bright, hard working students. [/quote]

Here’s another idea:  equal access to prep programs.[/quote]

While I agree in the spirit of, FCPS should provide prep programs (especially at middle schools that don't traditionally have a lot of kids accepted into TJ) "equal access" is going to be hard to truly achieve.

Throwing out TJ, just thinking about regular grades - it's not *fair* that some kids' parents can pay for them to get a tutor when they fall behind in class, and other kids have to babysit their siblings in the evenings and have no time to study. But what can the school do to fix that beyond banning out-of-school tutoring, and how would that be constitutional?[/quote]

I know. Asian kids have too much to do - baby sitting and studying. I don't know how they do it.[/quote]
They don't. Due to draconian child policy, babysitting is practically nonexistent.[/quote]

We are talking about Asian Americans. Hard to believe but they do exist. [/quote]
