[quote=Anonymous]For starters, don’t become rankings obsessed like a lot of the loons on this forum that endlessly bicker about utter non-sense like whether your life will be ruined if you go to Michigan vs. Cal because it is ranked one spot higher. Guide her to stay inquisitive and take the classes she wants, and it will all shake out. There are plenty of great schools out there. If she earns her way into a top 20-30 than great, if not than it wasn’t meant to be. If she’s stressing in 9th grade it will only get worse…not healthy. Trust me, having to take your kid to the psych ward in H.S. is no fun. Head it off now. Also recommend getting her some organization and time management training now, that goes a long way with reducing stress and allowing them to organize their lives to effectively study and learn maximize learning, skills that will last a lifetime. This right here is where you enter the Major Leagues of parenting because parenting is a verb and teenagers are tricky folks.  Good luck.[/quote]
