Thanks for this info. I suspected letters would be extra-late--our school encouraged parents to submit referrals without waiting for the letter, and in six years, that's the first time I've seen that.


That was the recommendation at DC's school last year, but it was the first year with the FxAT and it seemed like the scores and in-pool letters came really late.

Other schools have offered the same recommendation in years past.

Submitting a parental referral takes 5 minutes longer than filling out the rest of the package/questioneer. It is so not a big deal.

But why? Kids are not going to start AAP right away. They are going to start only from next academic year.

There is nothing you can do if you knew the results back in November or now.

If you are complaining about lack of time for parent referral from the time results are announced, you don't have to wait for the results, instead keep everything ready and wait for the results. If it's not favorable to you, then submit your referral forms.

I was wondering if the schools already have the scores.
