A high school located in Northern Virginia, known as TJ or TJHSST. Focuses on science and technology. Applicants must take an admissions test consisting of an English and math portion. This is compared on a sliding scale with their GPA, and if these scores are above the cut off they make it to the second round, which requires an essay and teacher recommendations. A large number of asians attend this school. The class of 2012 was the first class where asians were actually the majority, instead of caucasians.

Science

A system by which the Universe is better understood by the use of observations, experimentation, theories, and peer-review by fellow scientists. Often misconstrued to be the opposite, even anathema to religion, despite the fact that:

1. Much of modern science has been established by people of faith.

2. Many religious texts do not explicitly mention themes proven by science (i.e. evolution, microbiology, etc.) due to the simple fact that such things have not been discovered yet back then. Science merely fills in the gaps that isn't religion's purpose to fill in the first place.

3. A logical response to believing in a supreme creator or creators would be for the curious to 'want' to learn more about what has been created in the first place.

4. Despite public misconceptions, the Catholic Church have been known for providing a nurturing ground for what will become known as modern science in the west, even allowing the dissection of human corpses to advance knowledge of the human anatomy which is something the Greeks and Romans would have not allowed.

5. Logically speaking, a supreme being who would give people their particular brand of intelligence and a natural curiosity of the outside world would expect them to make use of them.
Pea-brained fundamentalist : Science is evil! It encourages people to sacrifice faith in exchange for what they can only see and tough!
Arrogant materialist: Faith is for the small-minded and easily deceived! Nothing else matters except what is verifiable by Science!
Me: Fools! Stop acting as if Religion and Science are supposed to be opposites! Enough of this false-dichotomy BS! IMHO, I know that one can find ways for them to compliment each other.
