[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the child’s temperament and the culture of the receiving school. My two ES changes were traumatic for me because of the culture at the schools I transferred to. One had unwelcoming staff and students (I was one of two minority students). The other was simply overwhelmed by a highly transient student body. No effort was made/could be made to ensure new kids were settling in. It didn’t help that I had never been in public school before and even basic things like lunch line stymied me. [/quote]
