It’s going to depend a lot on the specifics of the situation. A failing or severely depressed kid - now, at winter break, and they can go to public or homeschool or one of the alternative schooling options while applying out and determining the next best step. A kid who just finds themselves in a school they don’t like that’s a bad fit? Start the process of applying out but grit it out through the end of the year.
