[quote=Anonymous]Academically, a small high school has been great for my 2E kid, who was coming from a large school. The teachers know him well and won't let him fail. His peer group is high-achieving, and it's not cool to be aloof and disengaged like it was at his large public school. So far, it's also been better socially. He's no longer fixated on being in the popular group because the school is too small for that. It's better to be well-liked by your whole class than to be on the football team and try to date cheerleaders. And in fact, the school is small enough that the seniors have warned him against dating classmates, so he's not so focused on girls at school. He sees them more as friends, so he's learning to respect women. [/quote]
