The irony is that if she really had the courage of her convictions she'd be calling for TJ's dissolution, but this exercise is intended to make sure a few more Black and Hispanic kids get into TJ, so faux liberals like KKG can declare "victory" and give each other awards and endorsements.  Never mind that most students still won't have the opportunities that FCPS provides to but a very small number of kids. [/quote]

She knows that TJ's dissolution would have a negative effect on home values and business participation in Fairfax County. No elected official in their right mind would call for that regardless of their political bent, because you can't legislate from the sidelines.[/quote]

I have no idea how she would "know" that; in fact, home values in some neighborhoods would just as likely increase if TJ were actually serving county students rather than students from other jurisdictions. [/quote]

Oh, I agree with this. It would be GREAT if Governor's Schools were allowed to limit participation to one jurisdiction. I would LOVE a TJ that served only Fairfax County residents.[/quote]
