[quote=Anonymous]We actually didn't make the decision until late, maybe May.  It was funny because the school actually contacted us that they heard our daughter wasn't returning next year.  I guess they wanted to keep track of the numbers for budgeting purpose.  Not sure how the conversation came up but youngest daughter had mentioned it at school.

So basically, I didn't bring it up unless it was in the context of a conversation, like oh is Larla going to join the robotics team in the fall - oh she can't she is going to a new school.  Kids talk among themselves so if they said, their daughter mentioned Larla is going to xyz next year, I would say, yes, she is pretty excited.  It would seem strange to me to just bring it up out of the blue with no context.  I had the parent directory so it wasn't like I needed to get anyone's contact info.  As on the go as people are in this area, I figured the people that were making the effort to have the kids get together before for one on one  play dates would still make an effort once the kids were in different schools.  It was the same effort when kids have different teachers and none of the same activities.  I was right.  For my daughter that had social challenges, no one really kept in touch but then again she had no one making the effort when she did go to the same school which was one factor in our decision to change schools.[/quote]
