[quote=Anonymous] My DD switched from a PK-12 school after 8th to another PK-12 school. She initiated the discussion and described it as for social reasons only. I also, think the previous school emphasized sports too much for her and also there was huge favoritism toward a certain subset of kids by the teachers and it got old. I know it got old with me. Also, her class’ girls where very cliquey, so I’m sure that added to it. My DH was against it, but I was for it if it was what she wanted and was happy she mentioned it early enough to make it happen. It has worked out great for her! I so glad she did it. The only negative was that our younger DCs who stayed, were treated not so nice by some of the teachers after we switched, but the teacher’s behavior stayed in line with the obvious favoritism. Another benefit was I felt more comfortable when DD went to college because she had the experience of attending a new HS. I recommend it. We ended up switching the other two after 8th grade and it’s been great for them too. [/quote]
