[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We opted not to go in 4th and never looked back. Very happy she stayed. Two out of six kids came back and finished 5th at their homeschool. It was not the homework but the long commute and missing of the lasting friendships, school spirit and doing all the 5th grade events with their home school. [b]I find that most of the kids that leave and stay at HGC do so for one of three reasons. 1. Parent pushed. 2. Poor home school. 3. Lack of friends and hoping to bond/start anew in HGC[/b]. If your child is happy at their school, has close ties (sport teams/ girl/boy scouts etc...) and has positive friends, teachers and community, why move them? [/quote] Because they are incredibly bored, recognize that they are incredibly bored, and although they have close ties, positive friends, teachers and community, are willing to take the risk of a new school to alleviate the boredom. My child went to HGC - not pushed by me, was at a superb home school and had many friends.[/quote]
