[quote=Anonymous]I totally get this post. For my older children, I got caught up with having them go to the “best” schools. I have a rising 9th grader and she fell in love with what would have been my back up choice. I’m going to let her go there, though. What I learned from my older kids - high school is so much more than prestige, academic rigor, or perceived status. Especially with what our kids have gone through - I am going for a well-rounded school where my daughter felt warmly welcomed and supported. It’s not a pressure cooker school, but it matches her values and she will be able to join in a lot of activities without stressing as much. Just some perspective from a mom who has BTDT. [/quote]
