This can happen if you started an application for athletics (example only -- really any application within ParentVUE, but this is the most common, having opened for winter sports last Monday), but did not finish & submit it. The system only handles one application at a time.

If you find this is the case, finish & submit the athletic one (or delete it and come back to do it later), and you should see the 8th-grade HS programs application appear as an option (along with athletics, etc.) when you go back to the main ParentVUE page & again click on online registration.

Not saying it's a good system, but it's the system they have...

Nov 7 is the deadline. https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/specialprograms/high/#8resources

New family trying to apply to MCPS for high school. We're in the DCC and applying for engineering Wheaton magnet. Took us a while to get an account, etc. Finally in to finalize the application and all info about the magnet program has disappeared from the application in ParentVUE. Did we miss a deadline? We thought everything was due by 11/7 and can't find anything else online to say otherwise.

I'm afraid, as the kids say, we may be cooked.
