[quote=Anonymous]Are significantly more kids joining the grade in 9th?  How long has she been at the school?  Does/will she have classes, clubs & sports w kids from other grades; this can be a lifesaver & give breathing room too.  Some dynamics don't change & crystalize w time.  We were in similar position and made the really agonizing decision to move--to much consternation and commentary from many people not involved, and tears and fears of our child--but it turned out to be a great decision and continues to be so.

Many schools have bus routes and rolling admissions.  St. Andrews, Sandy Spring Friends...

Focus the conversation about the awesome opportunities at prospective schools, and not about your disappointment about the current school.  Fwiw you are doing the school you are leaving a favor too.  Your school knows the situation by now but can't fix it (until 9th at the earliest, if at all), and has full pay kids on the wait list, and contracts lock by June 1, so leaving before that date helps everyone involved.
