[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the universal screener they are speaking about? Are the kids going to get a screening test in school[/quote]

The universal screener is the iready kids take unless they opt out. I believe they're referring to it for the similarity in a test administered unless you opt out of it. However hye do plan to limit the TJ problem solving and whatever else test/essay to only the kids who qualify based on GPA or whatever other metrics. Essentially instead of requiring the kids in that pool to opt in they will require them to opt out if they don't want to take it. [/quote]

So they’ll get lots of kids who don’t opt out to avoid a confrontation with their parents but write things in their personal essays about how they don’t really want to go to TJ.  All on the taxpayer’s dime to sort through. [/quote]

That is going to take a lot of staffing to go through all these extra applications. I think they are trying to do too much at once. [/quote]
