[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid at TJ. I don’t think AT is trying to be TJ. TJ is a full fledged high school with music program, sports programs, full complement of languages, strength in all sciences, and  massive amounts of clubs and activities. AT is a program with a strong tech focus that offers a special concentration in engineering and computer programming options not available at most APS high schools.  It is not meant to be a full fare high school[/quote]

Are you not familiar with the term wannabe?  TJ was stood up to be an outstanding technical magnet; AT was created to be a honey pot to draw enough students from the 3 neighborhood schools to limit crowding crisis. [/quote]

Discussions proposing the AT program began many, many years ago with proactive APS parents. It was not created to solve an overcrowding crisis. What’s true is APS is growing the population of Arlington Tech a little to help with crowding. [/quote]

The genesis was a mini TJ, but the execution was because of over crowding. [/quote]
