If they won’T, then it’s not a good fit. Do your child a favor and make sure the school is a good fit. I’ve been down this road. It’s hard to undo the damage done by a bad fit school.
So far she is super happy in school and it’s a fantastic school with a vey individualized approach to kids especially in upper grades. It also requires that kids be pretty self-motivated which I could see being a challenge, but dd is able to be extremely engaged when she is interested. We will absolutely be looking carefully to see if it changes and is no longer the right place but for now I don’t think that’s the issue. The anxiety was triggered by social issues that are no longer a problem. She’s also the youngest in her class. She’s been seeing a therapist for over a year and that did help a lot.
