[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can't reach the school, DCPS has a critical response team. You could also try and ask the instructional superindendent for your cluster. If none of that works, try the OSSE ombudsperson or David Grosso's office.[/quote]

Chillax, PP. This is overkill. Especially for a kid who already left DCPS and got into private school. You will get zero sympathy.

Anyway.

OP, did the new school accept your child without a transcript/report card?

If so, they may just want an official one from DCPS to verify whatever you provided in the application is accurate. (Not that they don't trust parents, but...they don't trust parents.)

The private school should have given you an official transcript request form along with the application. All you have to do is give it to the DCPS school office staff at the old school with stamped return envelope the new school.

DCPS school admin will pull the report card from the DCPS computer system and send it directly to the new school.

Now, maybe the school staff is swamped with paperwork and/or understaffed. Maybe your form got lost in the summer purge of office stuff. Maybe they put it at the bottom of the "to do" pile because there's no rush or deadline. Maybe people you asked are new and don't understand what you're asking for.

Regardless, this is a routine admin practice between public and private schools. Besides, middle schools don't have official transcripts like high schools, so they can't withhold a report card.
