[quote=Anonymous]The system should not be revamped to better position low-income kids to apply to TJ. Rather, TJ should be scrapped or turned into an Academy, and the system revamped to improve the quality of education at the ES, MS, and HS levels. That would mean a soup-to-nuts reassessment of AAP at the ES and MS level and getting rid of low-return IB programs at the high schools serving the most low-income kids. The STEM magnet at TJ was initially about marketing, not education, and keeping TJ at the center of a discussion about educational equity is little more now than a concession that FCPS is unable or unwilling to do more than make cosmetic changes to address larger issues.
