[quote=Anonymous]Child went to low performing school and transferred into high performing in 3rd grade. It’s a world of difference. His new friends raise the topics of energy and matter and bring books to school that he asks me to buy, too (good books). At the old school kids played soccer and shot hoops at recess, he wasn’t interested. He had maybe 1-2 kids as friends. Nobody was mean but it just wasn’t his crowd. He was not behind academically when we transferred him but socially it was day and night. I don’t care about diversity as long as he is not in the minority. The new school has specific philosophy which helps too, but overall what matters is smart kids and their involved parents.[/quote]
