This doesn’t make sense to me. Is FCPS thinking about shutting down TJ? The students are academically of the same caliber under the new system. Why would there be much difference to hiring decisions, course selections, teaching assignments, and curriculum, esp for 9th grade classes?
Legal tactic. But they didn't care about the disruptions to the class of 2025. So why now?
The new system seemed to be fairer to all areas not just hose wealthy parts of the county that can afford to spend $10k on prep and the kids selected may be less prepped but seemed to struggle less once they were at TJ.
You can stop with that talking points. Seen it plastered dozens of times. Spout some original thought if you have any.
I wonder what would have happened with the admissions reform if FCPS had approached it from a “prep” standpoint vs racial justice?
Curie Learning Center publicly stating on their FB page that 133 of their students were admitted to the class of 2024 and listed our first and last names. There was some rumblings apparently that some kids had seen the test ahead of time, but I don’t think that was ever clear if it was accurate. I personally don’t have an issue with prep, but curious as to why the FCPS school board didn’t say that they wanted to level the playing field by addressing the issue that prepping seemed to be trending as a defacto requirement for admission? Race is clearly extremely problematic from a legal standpoint, but prep isn’t. (Unless it’s being used as a proxy for race of course.)
Overall, it’s just embarrassing how incompetent the school board is. They managed to make both sides furious.
Yes, Curie attendees made up a third of the admitted class but between them and the other prep centers apparently it was the majority of students. In fact, people who didn't prep had a slim chance of admission apparently. It seems like a way to keep out the poor and cater to the wealthy.
There were rumors that some students bought the test even.

When did FCPS even need any sense? All they need is to have liberals vote them in for them to become the dictator.
Oh I hate those liberals and their democracy! They are always far too concerned with others and not doing what benefits me!
Yes, why are those libturds always looking out for other people? Don't they know it's always all about me, me, ME!
