[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's inevitable that FCPS will pull the plug on TJ within the next 5-6 years. County residents will not continue to support a magnet that opens its doors to only a handful of non-Asians.  This is the final nail in the coffin.[/quote]

Wishful thinking.  I thought it was paid for by the State and not the county.   Regardless, aint gonna happen.[/quote]

Agree that isn't going to happen.  And the money is a state/county/private mix. FCPS per pupil funding or tuition payment for non-FCPS, plus a state Governon's School supplement.  Plus, parent donations and a lot of public-private partnerships. FCPS should pay the same per pupil for TJ and non- TJ, but a lot of supplements in various ways (cash donations, lab equipment, mentoring partners) from a number of different places. [/quote]

Keep telling yourself this. The county owns TJ and its days as a school for Asian test prep kids are numbered. The county owns the land and the building and there is decreasing benefit to FCPS in having a school that only 1200 county kids attend.[/quote]
