[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did it because of a late opening at our child's preferred school, which occurred after the contract closing period.

We called the head of the school we were committed to, had a very frank conversation with them, and they released us from our obligation. We were candid about our hope that the school would let us out of the contract, but made clear that we were prepared to honor our financial commitment if not. No silly excuses or claims.

Honesty is the best policy, folks. We signed an agreement, and were beholden to it. Simple as that. If you don't think you want your kid to be there, or are holding out for something else, don't sign the agreement. Be an adult and a model for your kids.[/quote]

I have never personally had to do it, but this is the only way I have heard people experience it... this thread is making me realize that apparently I only gravitate towards people who handle things like adults 😂 [/quote]

...Or you gravitate towards people that don't have better options.[/quote]
