  - I am a mom with no letter adn nothing today. The G&T and DOE 7th Ave. swore to me that the 90+ letters did not go out 1st. I think I am being lied to or these phone people are clueless. Who do I DEMAND an answer from? Joel Freakin Klein?

    - My goodness. You simply have to wait for your letter to arrive. What answer do you need other than your childs score?

  - There were reports they weren't being mailed out this week or until Friday too - see how accurate that worked out to be? No one really knows and if they do they won't tell you! Your tax $ hard at work.

the odds are against you no matter what. time to pack up or get used to the idea of seinding your child to your zoned public

uhm. all these reports you are talking about have been made anonymous. Do you honestly think that you can take those at face value?

I personally made one of them. I was told the winner letters were not sent first but I have seen nothing to show otherwise

and that person knows exactly what's going on? or was she just trying to get you off tyhe phone?

It doesn't matter. It truly doens't matter. You will get your letter and the score will be inside.

IT MATTERS!
