Silly question. Was just talking to a mom, whose son got into a G&T this year for K. She said that she never ranked schools, and they sent her a LIST of schools to choose from. The list included Anderson, Nest, and a few others, but chose a near by G&T (but not a district one). And - she got the results in April. Is that even possible? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I think test results came back in April with a list of schools to rank. Results of placement did not come back until a few weeks ago. [ Reply | More

Oh, maybe I misunderstood her, or she misunderstood that letter. So the fact that she got a list of schools to rank - did that mean that her ds was eligible to attend all of them? Or does it go to everyone? [ Reply | More

the list you got included only the schools you were eligible for. she is trying to tell you her dc scored a 97+, but she opted for a district program. she may have, or she may have ended up there because of the lotto which included too many 99s. [ Reply | More

although, wouldn't it be funny if the woman misunderstood and thinks her kid is going to Anderson and wonders when she's supposed to register? [ Reply | More
