[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on your school, but I think this is more common than you think. Especially around here. I wouldn’t expect any drama over it. Most educators really do want kids to be happy. [/quote] Agreed. And if you end up staying, they'll likely just be glad and move on. One suggestion: if you have an older kid, give them some simple guidance about how to discuss this at school. It doesn't need to be a massive secret, but you don't want them walking around (for example) comparing their current school to the others you're considering – especially if you like your current school and might stay. Kids also don't always understand that admissions are selective, and it sucks to tell your friends you're going to School A and then you don't get in.[/quote]
