[quote=Anonymous]I had a friend who moved from out of state junior year in high school. It sucked. Credits didn't transfer properly and he ended up having to take summer school to catch up on required courses for our state that weren't required in his. His math and science sequences were different than ours, so he spent junior year in freshmen classes trying to bridge the gap. The sport he played in his home state wasn't even offered at our large high school (think a water polo player moving to Maryland or a lacrosse player to Arizona). It was really, really hard for him. While he had a lot of acquaintances, his true friends were all back in his former state. The day after graduation he moved back to his former town to live with his best friend's family until he started college in that state in the fall. Can you negotiate remote work? Like you work a month there and then from home for a month? So kid can finish high school? Or rent an apartment and do M-F on the west coast and fly home for weekends? Really though I just wouldn't. I see the appeal but it's the wrong time.[/quote]
