[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most mental health issues at TJ are because of parental pressure, not teachers or classmates. I’ve had two there, including a current senior. My kids love it there. They are not in the top 25% of the class but not in the bottom 25% either. If your kid needs to excel to be happy then they should leave. If they are failing all their classes or even getting Ds, they should leave. But if they are getting Bs and maybe the occasional C, and they value the education that TJ has to offer, let them stay. There’s more to life (much more) than maximizing college admissions. [/quote] Agree, if student is receiving Cs and Ds, during their freshman year especially in Math, English, and Biology, they would be better off at their base school, where they have a better chance of earning As and Bs. It's ironic that students are having to find out for themselves if TJ is a good academic fit after getting admitted and are halfway through their freshman year. [/quote] There are always going to be some fit issues but things have gone a bit off the rails.[/quote]
