[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Transferring high schools is a huge academic and social disruption for a student who isn’t struggling. With rare exception, these schools should be able to educate the students who they accept without damaging their mental health: Your whole tone is precisely why so many students are deeply unhappy. [/quote] I take the stress experienced at high-pressure schools very seriously. However, I am trying to be realistic. Critique against these schools’ cultures has been going on for over a half century. Your DCUM post or artful letter to the head won’t be the thing that dials down the pressure cooker: It’s like sweeping the tide. Yes, enrolling elsewhere is challenging, but it may be the thing that saves your kid’s mental and physical health if school feels overwhelming. You can’t control the teachers, the other parents, or the administration, but you can control the choices your family makes. [/quote]
