[quote=Anonymous]A school we know had a big 8th grade trip that made kids not want to leave after 7th. Covid may have ruined that though. There was definitely a mixed bag of emotions for 8th grade parents. Some were happy with the close knit class, big graduation, trip, leadership. Others thought the stress of applying out wasn't always worth staying. I think it depends on the family, future high school prospects and kid. It would be easier to stay through 8th if it were easier to get into the next step high schools. As demand for "Big 3" increases, parents are going to be even more anxious. [/quote]
