Do we know why it is so late?
I assume it’s intentional. It’s what they said they would do and the teachers are in ParentSquare so they have the info. Assume they’re trying to avoid feedback?

That’s ridiculous if schools are sending out info on an app they’ve never circulated information about. Chris Cram and his communications cronies should be replaced.
🙄 from mcps earlier this week "By December, we will transition communications to ParentSquare (which owns Remind). You are already receiving communications from MCPS through ParentSquare.
None of that tells parents to download the Parent Square app.
You don't need the app.
No but you do need to set up yet another account and password. It's too much.

Ooh, how?
I don’t really know. Someone’s brother helped them change words in the website code to reveal their schedules. I’m not even sure which site they hacked.

They also noted that the deadline to change electives was last week. Of course my DS could not see his schedule until today.
He's not in the market to change anything right now, but this refusal to make changes and a deadline that predated the schedule release seems off to me.
The rule only works if schedules are correct in relation to course requests. The course requests are still up, you would be justified in insisting on a change past the date.
Exactly. And this is the reason that my kid is requesting a course change. Rising senior. If they had known prior to the deadline what they were placed in then the would have requested the change then.
