Does someone know a solution or what option I could use to escalate my concern. According to the criteria and numbers my daughter didn't qualify to apply. I don't think that is fair or right
Tomorrow is the cut off so I know I'm asking for a miracle just was hopeful

I would make an open records requests for all standards and admissions procedures relating to magnet programs and then examine them for exceptions. I am certain they have some discretionary language in there. Then you have to orient your efforts towards the discretion they have. But get everything submitted on time regardless!
