[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid has close friends at his current school, I would stay. You can always supplement academics outside of school through classes, camps, or tutoring but you can’t replace good friendships. In my DS’ experience at a center, it wasn’t a good fit and he returned to his base school after a few months. It wasn’t that the work was too hard, but the competition among students was off-putting. [/quote] Second graders can make new friends. That’s silly. [/quote] They will make new friends but it's not silly to be respectful of their relationships with their current friends or mindful of the dynamic of going to a different school from their closest neighborhood friends in the neighborhood. Kids will have friends from various activities, school, church, sports, neighborhood, etc. but there is something special about maintaining friendships with neighbors that are also schoolmates.
