Yes, but there was a year a while back (like 4-6 years ago) that results didn't post until about 7:30 AM.


Who is going to send out the bat signal when they post?


My assumption was that they would send out an email at the same time to the email address associated with one's MySchoolDC account, but this is my first time with the lottery... is that an incorrect assumption?





IIRC, results are visible on the website before the email goes out. Someone always seems to post here the second they're available.


Yes! I feel like the email was pretty delayed a few years ago too— like maybe you got the email at 8am the morning they said they’d be released but actually you could’ve logged in and seen the results at least 10 hours before, if you’re an average anxious parent/DCUM user.

every elementary school will likely next year have an IB equitable access preference which is great/fair but will further stack the deck for the remaining spaces in favor of IB siblings over IB non-siblings without an EA preference. no easy answers so long as schools cannot accommodate all IB students for preK
