Plus our zoned regular school has better scores. What should I do?


Call the number on the letter to ask.

Based on our previous years' experiences, I think if we don't receive a letter right away (1st round of offers is this week, 2nd round is right after April 15), then our chances of getting a spot are slim to none and we are in for a long wait. We did manage to get a spot in September once.

We received ours for Glenarden Woods (2nd grade)...and were accepted, with a raw lottery number of 121...a friend also got in with a raw lottery number of 191. So it looks like maybe the TAG lottery applications weren't vetted for eligibility before raw lottery scores were determined, perhaps...

Has anyone gotten their specialty lottery letters in the mail yet? I have not, but I am always having problems with my mail delivery, so I figured I'd ask if anyone else has gotten theirs. Thanks!
