[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Alexandrian's who keep saying otherwise about TJ vs TCW High School STEM programs are people who have very low expectations for a narrow group of STEM ACPS students. That seems to be the theme here in Alexandria City School System, doesn't it? All for the masses, nothing for the peripherals who happen to be born truly gifted. What a shame people are so narrow minded in Alexandria toward their own.[/b][/quote] The fact is few people in the region understand the needs of the profoundly gifted (as see Fairfax's AAP centers, that cater largely to a broader population.) Were it not seen as a tool in selling economic development, I am not sure FFX would be as behind TJ as it is - and look at Loudoun contemplating getting out of TJ. Alexandria, with fewer resources, and much greater poverty challenges in its schools, has, I think more excuse for its neglect of the profoundly gifted. [/quote]
