[quote=Anonymous]It's not weird, you can reach out if you like. But it might be confusing or disappointing to your kid if the offer never comes. In late summer and fall, it's hard to predict because it really depends on what the people ahead of you on the list do. My experience is not much motion in early August, but when the staff returns to the school building, they will be looking at their enrollment in all grades and making decisions and the registrar will get back from vacation. If this is a DCPS neighborhood school, it's likely they'll play it safe until the first week of school and see how many IB kids they have. On the other hand if they're expecting to have room they may want to fill it ASAP. It's a complicated process with a formula based on past years' experience and goes in tandem with the budget and teacher hiring.[/quote]
