Why were referrals due so early this year?

Yes. But unfortunately parents were not given more time to gather and digitize samples.

Our school is very flexible about samples and said we do not need to send any but if we locate some later (like now over break) we can send them in. In most years I really don’t think parent samples matter, but this is a weird year so who knows.
