[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, OP, you really won’t know how it will work for your kid until you’re there. Given that the bus ride will be manageable, it’s worth giving it a shot. It’s not difficult to switch back to your home middle school if Eastern really isn’t a good fit, but if you pass on the opportunity now, you’ll never know. It doesn’t work the other way: your kid can’t move to Eastern later if their home school turns out to be excruciatingly boring and unchallenging. [/quote] Said like a true Eastern parent. OP-your child sounds like they will do totally fine in their home school. Anyone that says middle school will be "excruciatingly boring" because it's not challenging is really uptight. At Eastern it could go either way. It's more risky. They could love it or really loathe their middle school experience. I don't think you should overthink too much. You don't live far away. Just have your child start there and then if it does not work out after the first few weeks put your child back at the regular school. They will lose nothing.[/quote]
