“#NYC DOE baffles parents, bungles middle school admission offers<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

The Department of Education launched city parents into yet another tailspin Thursday after mistakenly posting some middle school admission offers online, before abruptly removing them.<\/p>\n

Recipients said they were surprised to see the information app<\/a>ear in their parent portals \u2014 and were doubly taken aback when it vanished.<\/p>\n

As word of the notifications spread, parents who didn\u2019t receive offers worried that they had been dumped from the DOE admissions system entirely.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou had one group of parents who got the offer and were then confused if it was valid after it disappeared,\u201d said one mom. \u201cThen you had people freaking out because they didn\u2019t get anything at all. Another mess.\u201d<\/p>\n

The DOE acknowledged the error in a note to school staffers who were forced to field queries from frantic families.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor a brief period this morning, middle school offers were displayed in Myschools,\u201d the message read. \u201cWe understand that some families from your school community were able to log in and download an offer letter.\u201d<\/p>\n

The guidance said those offers were valid \u2014 but added that parents who didn\u2019t get a notification would have to wait until May to learn their middle school fate.<\/p>\n

Community Education Council 3, a parent advisory board, ripped the DOE\u2019s handling of the debacle in a letter to schools Chancellor Meisha Ross-Porter.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome families were left wondering if the letters were accurate while other families who did not receive a letter were left wondering why,\u201d the letter stated.<\/p>\n

The missive also noted technical problems with specialized high school offer emails Thursday after some parents were unable to open them for several hours.<\/p>\n

\u201cYesterday\u2019s actions were irresponsible at best and incompetent at worst,\u201d the missive said fo the double-barreled bungle. \u201cPut simply, the DOE should be embarrassed and take responsibility for their oversights.\u201d<\/p>\n

The panel demanded that all middle school offers be released now that some had leaked prematurely.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe DOE needs to stop sitting on information parents desperately want and release all placements and results across the city,\u201d the CEC argued. \u201cThe failure to do so would be negligence on the part of the DOE.\u201d<\/p>\n

The DOE said offers would be released shortly but did not offer a date.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know it has been a challenging year, and we apologize for the technical glitch that occurred yesterday with a small number of families,\u201d said DOE spokesperson Danielle Filson. \u201cWe reached out directly to anyone who accessed their middle school offers prematurely and we will be releasing all official offers to families soon.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
