[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The canary in this coal mine was when Ilryong Moon was denied an endorsement for another term on the School Board and had to step aside.

Throughout his tenure, he was known primarily for protecting TJ at all costs.

Other candidates who supported an equity-based approach to education won instead.  There is a lesson in that for the current School Board:  treat TJ as a sacred cow and you will lose your position.  With not enough seats even before Covid-19, protecting TJ when it could be used to benefit more county students in the future is outrageous. [/quote]

As others said, seating is a not a problem, just remove the Loudon spots and restrict everything to FCPS. Loudon has growing magnet programs as well.[/quote]

Loudoun County pays over $17K per seat (as do Arlington, Falls Church City, and Prince William) for the privilege of sending their kids to TJ. With nearly 400 students from Loudoun alone, even after you remove the additional expenses to FCPS, that's a huge chunk of money. While it might be the ethical thing to do, the financials of it won't fly.[/quote]
