Is there a center school in any of those pyramids?

Look at the tab for "Student Transfers." While it still refers to SY 2023-24, the data has actually been updated for SY 2024-25.

So although it says Centreville has XX, I'd be curious how many actually came from Liberty. Let's say 8 got in for the past 3 years, that really leaves about half that didn't attend Centreville's feeder/are AAP.

Same could be said for Westfield with some of those kids attending Rocky Run as well.

I wish they showed AAP status of the admitted.

Yes, that's correct. The information in the OP tells you the high schools that TJ students living in Fairfax County would be assigned to if they weren't attending TJ. It doesn't tell you what middle schools they attended. FCPS releases some information on the middle school admissions to TJ, but won't give you the exact number if it's fewer than 10.

In the case of Liberty, based on the 1.5% set-aside, Liberty is guaranteed about 7 slots every year, so in theory at least 28 kids now at TJ should have attended Liberty. No doubt more TJ students attended Rocky Run.

That is 1353 total students.There are fewer than 550 freshmen this year.

And you can't explain the difference with froshmores.

How many come from Arlington, Loudoun and Prince William? I know Arlington used to cap it at 25 per year (so 100 in total), but I don’t know if they have changed that.

Every middle school now gets 1.5% admitted (around 8-10 students depending on the size of the school) - but counties still pay tuition. How many middle schools are there in Arlington?

TJ has about 2100 students. These are the students from Fairfax County. FCPS indicates the base pyramids of those students on its capacity dashboard. They are reported as "transfers" although most of these students always attended TJ for HS.

So there are 133 kids who live within the McLean boundaries at TJ this year, all the way down to Mount Vernon with 24. It shows that every FCPS pyramid is now represented but some continue to be represented more than others.

Note that Annandale has 56 students. That doesn't mean those kids necessarily attended middle schools near Annandale. If a family moves into the Annandale pyramid, the geographical area of which includes TJ, after a kid gets admitted to TJ, it shows up as a "transfer" from Annandale.

Thanks!

NP.

In analyzing these numbers, it might be interesting to cross-reference race.

For Fairfax County alone, the 2020 census indicated Fairfax has a white population of 47.12%.
As a whole, TJ has a total minority population of just over 80%, with the largest cohort consisting of Asian students, while the census reflected an “Asian alone” population of 20.33%.

This data is somewhat skewed by the newer categories on the census for “mixed,” as well as being 4 years old, and other factors, such as counting FFX alone.
