[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can stomach the existence of TJ but AAP Centers and separate classrooms wrecks the emotional health of all students by making such harsh distinctions. [/quote] TJ parents thank you for tolerating their kids-- who worked their ass@s off to be accespted. And they work their ass@s off to stay. So glad that you think these kids, who represent less than 2% of FCPS HS students in a highly affluent, highly educated area, (which under any definition makes it a "true"gifted program) should be allowed access to the TJ curriculum. Then again, thete are plenty of parents on this board arguing that TJ should be done away with (too Asian, none of the students are US citizens-- which is BS; none of the kind do speak English-- againBS, extra FCPS resources-- again BS-- the governor's school supplement is about $1200/ student from the state, not the county). There are always parents who will get their nose out of joint because some kids have opportunities their kids don't. Now-- take away the coaches, trainers and high sports, (which cost much more than AAP, and more than the TJ supplement (from the state, not FCPS) -- and watch the shit hit the fan. Why do we believe athletics are so crucial-- especially when there are travel sports, but loudly protest extra academic opportunities for our brightest TJ kids?[/quote]
