The TJ task force has announced that it has given up plans to increase the number of black and Hispanic students at the school.  Tina Hone, spokesperson for The Coalition of the Silence, had no immediate comment, but an NAACP representative, speaking off the record, predicted an appeal was likely.  "The biggest challenge," the spokesmen noted, is that "ambitious blacks with bright kids know they can live in Silver Spring, get a very good education, and not have to put up with a bunch of wanna-be Confederates who seem to have forgotten about slavery but love to tell us how our 'culture' is lacking."  "If this keeps up," she added, "the applicant pool of qualified black students seems likely to shrink even further, and we won't have any plaintiffs left to represent."

On the bright side, the administration announced that TJ intends to form new table tennis, badminton and taekwondo teams this coming year.  Evan Glazer, the school's principal, announced that TJ had set a goal of 40 gold medals for the 2016 Olympics in Rio.  "We're a magnet school for students from around the world," Glazer explained, "so it's only fitting that we continue to display our superiority to Americans educated in high schools less highly ranked by U.S. News." Ilryong Moon, Chairman of the GCPS School Board, applauded the decision and announced plans to travel to Seoul and Delhi in 2013 to seek corporate sponsors for the team and begin the delicate negotiations over whether the TJ team would carry the Korean or Indian flags during the opening ceremonies.
