[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have matriculation info on Chantilly HS or Fairfax HS? DD is a rising freshman at TJ and one concern we have is that her chances at getting into a really good college might be lower from TJ. [/quote] Don't know about Chantilly, but a friend whose child just graduated from TJ said it was pretty hard to watch the kids' peers from Edison get into better schools with far less work during the HS years. Half of the kids at TJ are in "the bottom half". Her child got into VT, so he's fine, but there was a lot of stress along the way (and a lot of kids with anxiety and executive functioning issues even though they are super smart on the tests). I can imagine it would be really hard to see friends skating off to _______ school, knowing that they had a much easier experience. I guess the last laugh will be that friend's kid will probably skate through VT, while the peers will have to work a little harder in college.[/quote]
