[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just received our DCC lottery results in the mail in Silver Spring. [/quote] We also received our lottery results in 20902. DC didn't get first choice, but home school. He is very bummed. I don't know why we went through the whole choice process just to get a kid's hopes up to join an academy and then they don't get in. Would have been better to have just been assigned the home school and not to set high expectations. At least they should get to apply to the academies and get in based on merit, not just lottery.[/quote] I'm sure you're both disappointed but your job as the parent is to help him navigate life's disappointments, not corroborate an "it's not fair!!" attitude (which is totally normal for a bummed out 8th grader. An adult, not so much).[/quote]
