Applications Available for TJHSST

Applications are now available for Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology (TJHSST), the regional school for science and technology.

At each middle school, a designated counselor has applications, brochures, and newsletters about the admissions process. If a student cannot obtain an application from a middle school or private school, or if the student is home schooled, the student should call the Admissions Office, at 571-423-3770, for an application.

The initial application, which registers the applicant for the TJHSST admissions test in December, is a one-page form. 

Applications will be due to the designated middle school counselor or to the TJHSST Admissions Office (Fairfax County Public Schools, Gatehouse Administrative Center, 8115 Gatehouse Road, Suite 2600, Falls Church, Virginia 22042) no later than Friday, October 21. 

This is a firm deadline to which no exceptions will be made for any reason. Enrollment in a test preparation class does not constitute application or acceptance to TJHSST.
