EXCLUSIVE: The top public school in the US received hundreds of thousands of dollars from groups tied to China’s military.
Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology , part of Fairfax County Public Schools, is consistently ranked as the top high school in the nation. However, this element of its ties to Beijing has been largely unknown — until now.The prestigious school partnered with Tsinghua University High School in 2014 to assist it and China generally with adopting the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and advanced lab research TJHSST is famous for.
However, TUHS's concerning links have been well known. The Pentagon assessed in 2020 there were “Military-Civil Fusion linkages” with Tsinghua University, noting the school's"People's Liberation Army-affiliated labs." A report prepared for the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission in 2022 noted the PLA Air Force “established the ‘Dual-Enrollment Program’ with Tsinghua University.
TUHS says it is “attached” to Tsinghua University and is “directly under the Ministry of Education.” TUHS’s principal noted the school is “under the guidance” of the CCP, and leaders of the TUHS include CCP officials. TUHS International’s advisory board also includes Mao Daqing, part of the “United Front Work Department of CCP Central Committee.”
