[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually I think you are way underestimating the potential number of students who would excel at a school like TJ right here in the district. You need to get out more.   :roll: [/quote]

I've lived here longer than you have, and I'm out a lot, thanks.

I considered objective, national data points such as national merit commendations, SAT scores, Siemens  or Intel science finalists and presidential scholars.   There are a whopping 15  winners every year from a public HS in the district, and another few dozen kids who live in DC and attend GDS, Sidwell and sta/Ncs.

The embarrassing SAT score situation at banneker and sww has already been discussed at length, so I won't beat them up further.

Where do you believe these thousands of genius middle schoolers are hiding in the District? Seriously. Put up or shut up. Tell us: where?

Such a schools would not need thousands to be successful at all. It could be successful with a few hundred. Then you forget about all of the people moving into DC.[/quote]
