Student ‘Intent to Return 2023-2024’ due Tuesday, January 31st

Dear Maggie Walker freshman, sophomore, and junior families,

Dr. Lowerre will soon be sending you a separate notice via email that will include a link for families to complete regarding their intent to attend Maggie Walker Governor’s School next year. It will only need to be completed if your student is NOT intending to return to Maggie Walker or if you have had a change of address.  While the form is short, it is critically important for planning and budget purposes.  We ask that parents be present if a student is completing the form. Please complete it by Tuesday, January 31st. Division gifted coordinators rely on your responses to know how many student slots are available for incoming students next year.

Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter,
