[quote=Anonymous]I would see if the parochial school nearest your house had openings and if they did if they had a visiting day where students could spend a day, or a few hours visiting. Or ask to tour the school and try to go during recess or lunch to see if there are isolated kids. 4th grade is a tough year because some girls are just socially so much more mature and could easily hang out with middle school girls while other 4th grade girls would be perfectly happy still playing with dolls. If there is a socially savvy, popular girl who engages in relational bullying (purposeful manipulation and damaging of peer relationships) it makes school miserable for the girl(s) who are being bullied. It probably depends on the school but I have found in general kids in parochial schools don't grow up as fast. There are more limits on phones in school as well. There is more of an emphasis on not excluding although it can happen. If you could start her right now in 4th grade she and she finds friends she can stay until 8th grade. [/quote]
