I can't imagine Pyle is on the same scale of dysfunction...

I'm the OP. The school responded with the information I was missing. He had a schedule -- the letter saying he didn't have one was sent in error. Though there was some anxiety staff responded promptly and I think I have what I need. The additional resources from you all are welcomed as well.

Just for perspective -- same situation at Pyle in MoCo

I didn't think I'd rank it above Latin, Basis, or Hardy, or that it would be a definite alternative to moving or a private school, but ugh. How can some people know about a summer program and not others? how can enrolled kids not have schedules? why do some people get things in the mail and others don't?


Because SH is run by DC.

Why do ambulances break down frequently? Why is the trash not picked up? Why are violent criminals given 20 chances? Why do the roads look like they are from the surface of the moon? Why does DCRA let people erect giant, wobbly monstrosities made of particle board? Answer: DC.
