[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes. This is why I dislike small school dynamics. We're moving from a big public to small private for HS and I've been told that every class has a different feel depending on who is in it. One of DD's bullies from public moved to a small catholic girls school. It's not one of the places we applied to but if it were I would definitely have crossed it off the list because there are so many other great options.[/quote]

OP here. This is a good sized all girls school (catholic) but this one kid's name pops up in conversation after conversation - and we're not even Catholic! Who knew a 7th grader could wield such power.[/quote]

I guess it depends on how "good sized" it is. Most catholic schools I know of aren't that big. Or at least they are dwarfed in comparison to the social scene you get at a public school. And yeah, a couple of bad eggs can really change the dynamics! It sounds like your kid would be in soccer with her, so I would avoid! Although maybe if she goes in with lots of friends and they can all ignore this girl they will be fine, but it is tough to ignore some kids.[/quote]
