plans for 3/31?

[Anonymous]

Anyone planning anything for 3/31? What time of day should we expect the lottery results emails to come out? It seems like there should be a collective scream of relief/agony or something.

A pitcher of margaritas with lunch... all by myself... ah if only I didn't have to go back to work after!

I assumed we'd all just get on DCUM!!!

What time will we find out?

I'll join you!

Will the results be available at the stroke of midnight? I hope I don't turn into a pumpkin after viewing the results.

I am expecting the results in the morning - maybe 9am, hopefully before.

I will check DCUM and the site when I wake up on 3/31.

I'm hoping that they will come out before then--maybe Friday--and surprise us all. But I'm expecting that, since this is DC after all, we won't get anything until at least noon on 3/31.

I was in your shoes last year with pre-K. I wish you the best!

For PS3 and PK have principals been made privy of how many IB families have applied? Just curious of whether school leadership gets a heads up on the unofficial numbers for budget planning (budgets were due last week which was AFTER the lottery closed).

Painfully late two years ago - 6pm. Can't recall last year's release time exactly but I do remember being shocked it was earlier. It is DC people... Having booze handy is recommended. Really interested to see how the combined plays out. I specifically want to know if it will mean more neighborhood attendance and less commuting for so many.

Principals know the # of IB families that had applied. I asked the other day if all IB families will get a spot and I was given a response of the # that applied.

Principals also know - how many current families are applying to other common lottery schools (by grade)

Principals also know how many are siblings.

Principals know how many students are applying to other schools? Do they know which ones?

Everyone stalk a principal!
