All FCPS middle schools are represented in the Class of 2028:

Carson Middle School - 38
Cooper Middle School - 24
Frost Middle School - 31
Glasgow Middle School - 11
Katherine Johnson Middle School - 15
Kilmer Middle School - 35
Lake Braddock Middle School - 14
Longfellow Middle School - 40
Luther Jackson Middle School – 23
Rocky Run Middle School - 19
Sandburg Middle School - 11
* All other middle schools had 10 or fewer students.

for class of 2025, Luther Jackson got 11 admitted, for 2028, 23 offered.
Kilmer got less than 10 offers in the class of 2025, but 35 this year.
What caused such big jumps?

A change in AAP?

TJ admission data before admission policy change can be found here:

Yes- particularly Carson and Longfellow.

Not coincidentally, both Carson and Longfellow have very high percentages of Asian/Indian American students.

The last school board implemented their “1.5 %” rule specifically to reduce the number of Asian students admitted to TJ.

The TJ selection process is “race blind.” (if you believe that).

Some had 60-80

What were the admit counts for these schools for class of 2022, 2023, 2024, that got in before admissions change?
