Are we going to hear this week?

Does anyone have any inside knowledge?

FCPS website:
April 4-5, 2024
Eligibility decisions sent

So unfortunately we won't hear until after spring break.

Normally, decisions are released the Friday before the start of spring break. Decisions are dropped and then immediately after, the offices are closed. I would expect a similar pattern this year based on human nature, but I don't think anyone knows for certain.

The committee met a couple weeks ago. We'll see if everything can be processed by Friday.

Again, the FCPS website says April 4-5th. Do they always say it will be after spring break but release it two weeks earlier than that?

My school’s AART told parents she couldn’t release the school-based packet sent on the committee to parents until the committee had met and processed the applications. The jackets were released today (at my school). So I do think decisions have been made.

Packets, not jackets. Clearly my child has a better chance at AAP than I do!

It’s nice to see some humor and humility on this forum

The FCPS website does generally indicate a LATER date than when the actual release takes place. I suppose the unusual thing this year is that spring break is earlier than normal.

They don't normally publish a date. At least they didn't when my older 2 kids were in the process.

They have the past bunch of years, I know they did 3 years ago when my son was going through the process and I remember it being listed the last few years.

I think the date is when we can expect the results.

Last year the website said eligibility decisions would be sent April 6-7 and they ended up sending them at 4:55 pm on 3/31, the Friday afternoon right before spring break. Hoping you all hear on Friday.

Yep. We got the decision at close of business the Friday before Spring Break, even though the website said they would be later.
