[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is the same in 4th grade. She's in a classroom this year where she doesn't know anyone and the girls are really cliquey. For us, there's definitely a cultural issue- she's the only white girl in her class. She's so friendly but none of the other girls will come over for playdates and they all seem to know each other outside of school. She plays with herself a lot during recess. I wish they could eat lunch at any table they wanted, but her friends at least sit at the table next to her and they can talk across the aisle during lunch. [/quote]

Please move your daughter to a school where she isn't an "only".

Signed, someone who was an "only." That experience will mess.with your self esteem forever.[/quote]

DP. In my case my sons are at a Catholic school where they are getting an excellent education, but by coincidence one son is the only white boy in his class. Do you really think  that is a reason to leave the school? He might have just as much trouble making friends elsewhere.[/quote]
