[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can she be in a different class next year with different kids? If she is going to be with same kids for the duration I would switch too. [/quote]

There are no other classes - it’s one class per grade. [/quote]

OP, just curious, do you have other children at the school? We are in a similar situation with our fourth grade DD at a small school with just one class per grade. DD is really struggling socially and we’re considering public, but we have another child who has lucked out and is in a class with mostly easy going kids and seems to be thriving at the small school. Overall, I’m not thrilled with how the school handles mean kids so am tempted to pull both kids out. Just wondering if you’ve got another kid factoring into your decision.[/quote]

Hi this is OP - another child is not factoring into the decision.  But even if I had two there, I would not mind separating them if that's what worked best.  If 4th is rough for your daughter, often it only gets worse as they get older. Also I know plenty of families that have their kids split - some or one in public and the other(s) in private.  The problem with small kids is when even one kid leaves or one kid joins, the entire dynamic of the class can shift.[/quote]
