[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe this was what PP was trying to share but the FCPS monthly membership reports indicate that, as of January 2022, TJ's enrollment was down 11 students from the beginning of the 2021-22 school year.

Over the same periods in 2020-21, 2019-20, 2018-19, and 2017-18, TJ's enrollment was down 4, 2, 11 and 6 students, respectively.

So more kids leaving TJ than in 3 or the past 4 years, but no more than in one of those years (2018-19).

The more relevant statistic should be among [b]9th graders[/b].  Among 9th graders enrollment fell (as of January 2022) by 8 students.

Over the same periods in 2020-21, 2019-20, 2018-2019, 2017-18 TJ's enrollment was down 1, 1, 5 and 1 among 9th graders.

In other words, kids leaving TJ is quite alarming on a statistical level.  This will probably widen as the months go by. [/quote]

The best STEM high school in the nation is also offering remedial algebra classes.  Can't make this up.

Wow this is terrible.  These kids should not be at TJ.[/quote]

Yes, all of those Asian kids kids who dropped out should not be at TJ.[/quote]

PP here, I really don’t care what race the kids are who are taking remedial Algebra.  They don’t belong at TJ.  If they can’t even hack algebra, you think they are going to be successful in the higher level math and science courses after that?  They belong at their base school.  TJ should just recommend they go back to their base school.  These kids are going to struggle and continue to struggle.

You are making it a race issue, not me. [/quote]

LOL, you literally posted an article screeching about the new admissions standards.[/quote]
