Got letter that student was placed in both lottery pools and did not get a spot. I presume this mean he will be placed in HIGH and AIM at our local school.

Congrats. Is that the Jan score or from fall? It’s fall that they look at. Also what does it say in the letter? Any other pertinent info? Does it mention Eastern too?

Sorry to hear that. The lottery isn't really that great and identifying the best candidates but this is the last year of this experiment so hopefully next year's process will be better.

If parents are willing, I would be interested in knowing the MAP-M scores of kids who did and didn’t get selected. (And, yes, I know they’re still using the lottery model.) Best of luck to everyone for good news!

Same here. I don’t know if everyone receives a letter or just those who were eligible?


Everyone gets a letter.

I don’t think it has in the past.


It always takes longer for it to post on Parentvue.


It’s never been posted on parent vue before. At all.
