During opening remarks, Superintendent Cynthia Siniak described the drawing as assigning numbers "for families in order from 1 to 138, which is the total number of lottery registrants." Joanne Long, district clerk, read names for numbers 1–138 and then announced an additional registrant as number 139 (Vargas Reuben), creating an on-record mismatch between the earlier stated total and the list read during the draw.
The discrepancy was not clarified during the session. Long paused several times during the reading to confirm spellings and noted multiple twin pairs among registrants. The district's procedures call for emailing each family their assigned number; the clerk closed the event saying families would receive number assignments by email. The district did not state on the record whether number 139 reflected a late registrant, a numbering error, or a transcription/recording issue.
