Choirs at Thomas Jefferson actively perform throughout Fairfax County, and have participated in national and international festivals. In 1994 the Thomas Jefferson Choral program celebrated the 50th anniversary of the World War II liberation of France in Caen, sister city to Alexandria. Most recently the chorus performed at Carnegie Hall under the direction of John Rutter. The choral curriculum at TJHSST emphasizes vocal training, music literacy, and exposure to a variety of musical forms and styles including classical, folk, jazz, and popular music.
The Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology was established in 1985 as the Governor’s Regional School for Science & Technology. The school serves students from Fairfax, Loudoun, Arlington, Fauquier, and Prince William counties. The school offers a demanding college preparatory curriculum with an emphasis on topics in science and technology.
