[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And a transfer now will be seen as a step back in rigor, so higher grades onward would also be tinged.[/quote] Not true. If you do well in base schools you have a good shot at good schools. Getting into top college from TJ is not easy. Many get to Ivies easily from base schools but not from TJ[/quote] OP's kid is not getting into a top school with these grades--doesn't matter if they transfer or not. Unless they are an athlete plus another hook.[/quote] This. You all are in denial. He could get all As from now on but unless it’s Emory and he is in very hard classes, he won’t be in the top anywhere. Do you all really believe the base school kids are drooling in a corner? [/quote] See previous point. OP's kid most likely would do very well in base HS. Should be getting all A's in 10th and 11th. That would make the child at par with anyone else at base HS for those two grade levels. We dont know anything about the OP's kid and they might have a lot of other things going. I dont see any issue with getting into a very good college. [/quote]
