[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are little Langley students TJ-ready? [/quote] The occasional very bright Little Langley student will go on to TJ, but that’s more based on that specific kid’s advanced academic prowess vs Langley specifically preparing them for TJ. Parents have generally selected Langley for its well-rounded curriculum—academics plus arts, sports, music, SEL, etc. Langley is a really supportive/non-competitive school environment. TJ to the best of my knowledge is very focused on academics and is highly competitive so it’s just generally not the type of school many Langley families would seek out. Academically, Langley’s certainly prepares kids for the academically rigorous privates, however, the highest math is Geometry—it’s taught well, but I believe TJ entrants coming from AAP publics could come in with Algebra 2 under their belt and be used to a more competitive/less supportive environment.
