Wake County families can now go online to find out if their first transfer period application was approved.
Click here for the link to access your results. You can't appeal a rejection but you are put on the wait list for your first-choice school.
The first transfer period, an attempt to keep parts of the now-discarded choice plan, allowed parents to request any non-magnet school in the county. Some people were applying for their calendar-option school, or to their base school, or for the feeder school from the choice plan.
The only transfer requests that were supposed to be guaranteed were those for incoming K, 6th and 9th graders trying to go to the same non-base school currently attended by their siblings and existing students who didn't want to be reassigned from their current school into one of the three new schools.

PLEASANTLY SURPRISED
Fri, 03/08/2013 - 18:57 — WakeCtyMomWe live near North Hills with a base school which is underenrolled, underfunded, and has terrible test scores. We applied to Pleasant Union during the first transfer period and got in. No siblings or other priorities. I am shocked I was let out!!! Woohoo!
A big change

Awesome!
