Base parent: Studying education or communication and minoring in Sociology. I think s/he is in the bottom 50%. We are really working the "connections" to get him/her a job after graduation.

TJ parent: But high school was like MIT for my kid, so it's almost like my kid went to college already.
Base parent: Put down the Kool-Aid.

LMAO.

For those who can't make it in.


TJ is the best high school in the country with no tuition!


Yes. Free tuition is the best part.


No, the best high school is the best part.


TJ serves a useful purpose since it quarantines some of the area’s most obnoxious parents and students. If these kids were at their base schools, there would be more cheating and back-stabbing.


I don't know about cheating and backstabbing, but it would change the culture of the base schools in a very negative way. Seriously, I'm happy for TJ. Let the kids/parents who want high school to be "harder than college" go there. Let the sane people have the base schools and end up at the same colleges. It's a win all around. I like that the craziness is sequestered.


Right. Let's squester all the drugs, sex, partying, bullying, violence, back stabbing, elitism, racial discrimination etc. to non-TJ schools. Great for TJ!


TJ bashers are getting clobbered.


Not really. TJ supporters keep coming back for more. They can't face reality. They put their kids through hell just to end up at the same college as a top base kid. They're embarrassed!

It's like attending MIT for free.


Seriously? Comparing a high school to MIT?! Lol.


There is no better science magnet high school in the country.


Lmao. You just compared a high school to a college. Wow. No comparison at all.
