[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the raves about charter schools, and for all the desperate parents hoping to get their DC in, not a single charter school, so far as I can tell (at least of those offering PS3), cares enough about their future families to post their lottery results online or notified parents by email of their waitlist numbers. What gives?[/quote] Chill out. These lotteries just took place on Friday. For schools that do the lottery in paper all the information has to be transferred electronically, double checked, siblings accounted for, formatted, and then posted to websites. Even for schools that do the lottery electronically, they too have to account for all the siblings, double check the data, and post. A lot of these schools have over 100 applications, if not several thousands, for children in as many as 15 different grades, sometimes at multiple campuses which is also impacting results (in situations where people can preference campuses). This doesn't happen in seconds and plenty of the lotteries were late afternoon or evening. Do you expect admins to spend all weekend doing this when it doesn't help anyone to know two days earlier. Relax.[/quote]
