[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son was advised to not take Spanish since it is extremely hard at TJ. He took German and LOVES it. [/quote] In the other TJ thread about rank falling to 14, someone wrote “Bonitatibus has ruined the foreign languages department since she started at TJ.” Anyone know what this means? And why would Spanish be harder at TJ than other languages? Is it the teacher or it is taught at faster speed?[/quote] Bonitatibus seems more like a status quo cheerleader running around as TJ continues on its usual course. She doesn't appear to have the leadership skills or STEM knowledge to make a change, improve, or set new direction. Constantly mentions GPS without any apparent reason, baffles everyone.[/quote] She has to somehow keep the bottom from falling out and the wheels from coming off while making the diversity effort seems successful somehow. Keeping her head above water is about all she can manage right now.[/quote] I don't know where you get these false stories but TJ is now stronger than ever and a lot less toxic too. Bonitatibus played a large part in making it a safer and healthier place for our students.[/quote] I guess I'm getting it from the drop in ranking, the 120 point drop in PSAT scores, the dramatic drop in SOL advance pass rates, the 50% drop in national merit semi-finalists, the number of AIME and IMO participants. Pretty much every objective academic metric that comes up is worse now and Bonitatubus has to put lipstick on that pig.[/quote] Having students with different academic credentials doesn't make it a worse school. It makes it a healthy mix more like the Ivy League schools that TJ parents obsess over. The top kids are happy to be at the top, and the non-top kids are happy to be there. [/quote]
