[quote=Anonymous]Having been in similar shoes, go abroad in 5th grade when children are still pretty open to meeting new people and making friends. Our child started private middle school in 6th and it was a lonely transition year. Social connections didn't start forming until their second year of school. Speaking with other parents it was pretty common for them to say it was also a two-year adjustment period for their kid as well regardless of the entry year -- so go while you child is younger, not older!
