This highschool is the only in the district to offer the IB program, an extremely rigorous honors program offered all over the world. By taking the college prep classes, students will be able to pass tests their senior year earning them college credits and therefore saving money! The IB Diploma is even accepted by the University of Washington. Other than this, the school is large, organized, clean, and includes an extremely respectable teaching staff, state champion quality cross country, swimteams, basketball, and tennis! The marching band, jazz band and symphonic bands are also offered as well as AP statistics and upperlevel IB Calculus! PROS: Very rigorous and of high quality! CONS: Open Campus, covered walk-ways.

TJ has the reputation as the best high school academically in Federal Way. They're the only one with an IB program (like AP but different), they have very successful students and they're probably the only high school in FW where you'll find ivy league schools visiting. Overall, its a great school and I'd recommend it to anyone in FW.
