Last year they said they didn't offer any spots. This year there may be a handful because I think knsome people pulled their kids out after the drama at the beginning of the school year.

Well... we're in the 50s, so guess we're moving to a county with decent schools.

If your number is in the 50s on the "raw" numbers spreadsheet that means you got a spot.

Thanks for the info! That's exactly what I wanted to know!

Thanks for posting the link. It looks like last year the web site was updated on April 4, which was about a week before some people got their letters in the mail.

This web site that had last year's lottery results as recently as this morning is now closed for maintenance. Here's hoping they update soon!
I seem to remember last year you could look up your number and which place you are in the queue for each school, but I'm not sure if they released that info before they mailed the letters.

With the charter lottery, we received an email a week after the the drawing and a letter about 5-7 days later. I'm anticipating knowing something via email early next week...
We received placement in the Charter lottery and are pretty happy, but I'm still anxious to hear about entry into the Spanish Immersion program.

Does anyone know if we will receive a letter first or if the website will be updated first? I guess we are all anxiously awaiting the results.

Who else is waiting on the results for the Specialty Lottery? The lottery was supposed to be held March 20 with letters mailed on April 1. I keep checking to see when they will update with the lottery result.
I am hoping for a 3 year old spot at Robert Goddard Montessori. If we get in, the search will be on for after care, as it's a half day program with no transportation or after care!
Please post your lottery hopes/fears/results
