[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's really hard to switch into any new school as a 4th grade girl, so I definitely wouldn't chalk this up to being school-specific. (2nd grade seems to be the last truly sweet spot where switching is easy for a well-adjusted kid; 3rd grade works if they're outgoing or find a good fit.) It's one of the reasons I'm always surprised by how many people play the lottery to go to a slightly "better" school for 1-2 years.[/quote] It's not for 1-2 years, it's for 5 years and our former school was not preparing them for high school--most parents had to invest in outside math and ELA classes on top of paying for tuition and squeezing out time for other activities and rest.[/quote]
