• College Preparation

  As a college-preparatory school, TJ instills in students the skills that will ensure their success at the next level of their education. Guiding students through a personalized college-application process, a team of experienced faculty members helps seniors gain admission to colleges that are the best fit for their interests. Over the school’s history, 100 percent of its graduates have gone on to attend a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the U.S. and abroad, and a large number have continued their education in graduate or professional schools. By their own accounts, they feel comfortable and confident dealing with the challenge and independence of college right from the onset. Excellent preparation for college remains a hallmark of the TJ experience.
