[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you so much. I really appreciate your responses. I thought my kid will be entered into the drawing based on the grade and MAP-R alone. On the website it says evaluation of prior grades and assessments.[/quote]

Your kid may have been entered in the pool but you never got any notifications. I emailed [b]DCCAPS@mcpsmd.org[/b], mentioning my kids student id, school name and asked if my kid was in the criteria based pool and got a response the very next morning saying my kid was waitlisted for both programs upcounty. I attached the last MAP results and first marking period report I saw on studentvue. They seem to be quick in responding. Our school is 30% FARMS.

It says my child was not entered in the pool. If this whole thing is about fairness, my only thing is it should be based soley on test and grade results. All kids who fit into the cut off whether at 85 % or at 95% needs to be clearly stated and then all that meets these criteria should be entered into the lottery. But taking FARMS into consideration changes this whole game. It should be judged only on results basis and not because of FARMS rate. I was just disappointed at myself, if I knew the cut off to be entered into the lottery has other criterias besides the grades, I would have done something. This beats the whole idea of trying to provide more challenging courses for kids who are hardworking and wants to put in the time and effort. [/quote]

What could you have done if you knew Farms is considered? [/quote]
