I thought acceptance letter came in business envelopes. You are talking about the rip cards like the survey forms?


Yes, I also thought acceptance letters came in business envelopes based on past experience, but not today. This was an acceptance in one of those perforated rip forms.


Huh. They used to include a form to send back accepting the invitation to the center. How is that handled now?


Online acceptance form -- they also did this for the middle school magnets and the middle school lottery schools this year (I have a fifth grader, too).


In other posts, it was said that acceptances for MS were in envelopes and waitlist/rejects were in rip cards. This is confusing.

And score info?


Drew, 99% both nationally and local (MCPS) norm. It only gives the composite score, not the breakdown of subsections.

So no envelopes this year? Just perforated survey type of mailing?

Congrats to your child!

You mean we won’t know right away? Wow, MCPS is sadistic...


DP. Two years ago we received our acceptance letter first, in an envelope, then the scores a couple days later, in a perforated mailer.


And this year it looks like people are getting perforated mailers first...
