[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The irony is STEM is for total losers. There's no shortage of STEM workers in the US. For example, CS education is at an all-time high. Companies foster this myth to all for the import of inexpensive labor as a means to subvert fair market wages and lower costs. Further, most any high-tech firm worth a damn rarely hires anyone over 30. So good luck with your short underpaid career in tech.[/quote]

Do you know any TJ kids? They are many things-- because they have diverse interests and talents. But none of them are losers. But make yourself feel better about yourself and your kid by insulting kids who are in the top 2% of FCPS HS grads, and could attend a base school and get into a great college, but instead apply for the opportunity to take an incredibly rigorous set of required classes, do 3 times the homework of average FCPS AP/honors kids-- often year round and challenge themselves to be the very best they can. And look at the list of top STEM schools that 20 plus TJ kid a year attend before you blather on about short underpaid careers.

It blows my mind that some adults are so mean spirited and bitter that they insult kids who work so incredibly hard at school.  [/quote]
