GC box arrived via usps today.

Picking up my mcps kid shortly and will bring the box in the car so he can open it.

Good luck everyone! We aren’t applying this year, but I remember the stress, worry and anticipation! Rooting for all your kids!

Same! I think our kid is fabulous and a very good fit for their top choice, so I will inevitably blame myself (Did I rub someone the wrong way? Do people dislike us? Etc.) even though it could be the luck of the draw when it comes down to it. Hang in there. It’ll all work out as it should, accepted or not.

Good luck! If not in can try again 10th grade.

What is plan B? Both are obviously great but even the most incredible students are long shots (depending on grade)?

Yes. It’s f’d up when they keep giving you all those reminders and you get rejected

Did others get this call from Holton? We applied and did not get this phone call.

We did but we are a legacy family. They made it clear that they make these calls to legacy families only ahead of the official decisions release date. Hang on tight and best of luck to m your daughter !

Is a call a good thing?

I mean, it was a call to let us know that our DD is getting in, but they stated they make them to legacy families only.

Yes, they are not supposed to post before 4, though I guess they can call. The 4 pm notification is part of local school association guidelines, as is the Feb 27 date.

Where did they apply?

I felt pretty confident about my kids’ applications up until this morning. I know they will be fine and rejection is a part of life, but the irrational side of me feels as if it is my fault if they don’t get accepted anywhere.

Good luck to everyone this afternoon

Package does not necessarily arrive the same day. It depends on the mail carrier.
