[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really struggling- for a variety of reasons (too identifying to get into but having to do with school culture/how they have handled things with one child)  I have come to really dislike our Big 3. We have a rising senior and another High schooler (older than 9th). I feel like its way too late to pull the plug, obviously for our senior. We have spent so much of our savings on this investment and I feel trapped. Obviously we want to do what is best for our kid and pulling a rising senior is not in the cards. Would you pull the younger kid? They are pretty happy and want to stay.

I feel disengaged and even hostile to the school (sorry I really am not being coy- but the details are too revealing). I just pay up and shut up, right?[/quote]

You’re not alone. I think most parents at some point have probably felt the way you do even though at some schools it is frowned upon by parents to say anything against the school. You can’t move a senior and if your other kid is happy just be grateful they’re happy. My advice is to try to find little ways that you can be involved on your own terms with your own people to feel that you were somewhat happy at the school. You only have a few more years left and you don’t want to regret that you didn’t have any good experiences there especially as you said it is a lot of money to spend. Best of luck.[/quote]
