[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does this apply even to rising 8th graders applying in AY25-26? Will be hard to them to choose from unclear options [/quote]

I suspect few if any things will actually change for the 2026-2027 school year (other than internal prep stuff); 2027-2028 is more likely.

But no one really knows at this point.  We'll see what gets shared at the board meeting on Tuesday, and if you have questions or thoughts about it you might want to share them with board members now in hopes they will bring them up during that part of the agenda.[/quote]

MCPS knows and they already said they would share the new programs in time for applications in January 2026 for the 2026-27 school year. I can understand how it’s confusing given the amount of information coming out about so many topics at once, but they are clearly communicating[/quote]

This has not been communicated, let alone clearly. HS applications are in the fall. January is already course selection. Your timeline makes no sense and you keep posting with such confidence. [/quote]

Not the OP, but January is when the implementation begins per CO.  Course selection does not impact special programs because kids regular for the home school until they are accepted at a special program which does not occur until Febrary/March timeframe.[/quote]

Last year the application for HS special programs opened on October 7th and closed on November 1st. Previews of the programs began before the app opened, in September. How can all of that happen if they don't know what the new programs will be until January?[/quote]

Yeah, makes no sense. [/quote]
