[quote=Anonymous]Parent of a painfully shy child here too. After a lot of issues with transition through preschool, we opted out of public school because of the size of the schools.  While it works for some, the change in class makeup every year would have been a nightmare for our daughter.  We started her at a smaller local Catholic where she moves with the same classmates from year-to-year.  It's a much smaller community so she knows all of the kids and parents and feels very comfortable.  The big plus is she knows in June who her classmates and teacher will be for each school year so there's no back-to-school anxiety.  We have noticed an enormous change in her over the past three years and her shyness is hardly an issue anymore. I think ensuring she had a good comfort zone allowed her to "grow out of it" in confidence.

That said, we have friends at Somerset who rave about the community there. I think you would have no trouble meeting neighborhood families and helping her feel comfortable before she starts.[/quote]
