Whites can’t compete with Asians so they have to cheat. Pathetic.

There is a lot of white hate on this forum when it comes to whites and TJ. Understand white families and white students don't want to go there. White applications have dropped for years. White acceptance rates have dropped for years. White families want a healthier culture for their kids.

News flash, there are a ton of “white” geniuses out there, I know it’s not PC to admit that though. Read some history.

Or is the purpose of TJ to be the number 1 school in the nation?

If the true purpose of TJ is to provide a strong STEM focused education, then the school should be lottery based. I’m not sure it should be based on a test or high gpa. All kids should have the same opportunities to go there. The 3.5 GPA cutoff seems like a good cutoff for lottery kids.

It will most likely no longer continue to be a top 10 high school, but that is ok.

This is their mission statement. It does not mention being #1.

“The mission of Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology is to provide students with a challenging learning environment focused on math, science, and technology, to inspire joy at the prospect of discovery, and to foster a culture of innovation based on ethical behavior and the shared interests of humanity.”

Whites are more than welcome to compete if they choose to do so. If anyone, whites/blacks/hispanics/blue student and parents, put out the same effort as Asians, they would surely be able to compete.

Your kid will have no problem getting into college. You just have to accept that there are good colleges that are not Ivies. Stop being focused on getting into the glory school and look for schools that actually fit your child. Believe it or not, there are millions of successful people who attended small liberal arts colleges and small engineering colleges and schools not named MIT, Yale, Princeton, and Cal Tech.

Just like there are kids who attend base high schools in FCPS who attend many well known colleges.

The issue is that too many people, regardless of race, are so focused on the prestige schools as being then end all and be all that they lose perspective.

Should current TJ students apologize for the fraudulent way they got in?

It would be a nice gesture.

*whisper* TJ doesn't help Asians get into college and it never has

Civil rights to many white people are not ideals to fight for, but charities to give to people so they feel morally superior.

That’s what they are doing now.

Quota is racist, because it assumes that a lottery is the only way Blacks and Hispanics can get in.

Because they want to pretend they like diversity but really don't want it.

Same as appointing women to cabinet positions.

There is worse racism against Asians.

These kind of race politics is played by Republicans. There are also some racist URMs who are not looking out for the interests of their groups. They are misleading people of their own race.

As usual, Asian parents will find a way to make their children succeed academically. It does not matter if FCPS dumbs down the curriculum or gives seats to low performing Whites (and 1-2 token Hispanic and Black students) - eventually, no one can win against the sheer amount of hard work and grit of Asian-American students. Bring it on. You are only hurting middle class students (mainly White).

Take a look at Democrat run Baltimore Schools. Twelve high schools don't have (1) student that can do math at grade level. The Democrats don't care. They are failing black families in Baltimore.
