    I am anxiously awaiting the February group to get responses since then it will be closer to the March application review where our application is going to be looked at. I did receive my e-mail stating ours had been received--it's going to be a long wait.

    Oh, we're around ... I'm adding when I have something to add. Still fighting school and even *I'm* getting sick of it! I'll post when something actually happens -- or sooner if the spirit moves me. :-) I'm waiting on the principal *still* to get going with the IAS ... I'm thinking she figures that as long as it's not available, she won't have to deal with me. Sigh.

    But anyway, Kriston, I've got my fingers crossed triple for you guys.

    Sorry, Mia and crisc for your various waits.

    Ah, if only impatience actually made the wheels of beauracracy move faster!

    I recommend that you check out their website:

    They do a much better job of explaining than I would! smile

    LOL! I'm such a wiseacre, I don't know why you put up with me, Dottie. laugh

    I'm sure both sets of Explore scores will smell like vanilla and cinnamon!

    Even so, I'm not holding my breath for tomorrow's mail. February is a short month, even with that extra day in there this year, so I assume it's going to take the full month for the DYS scores, just as you're assuming it will take the full 6 weeks for the Explore scores.

    Expect the worst and hope for the best, no?
