[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely have her do a shadow day.   You could also tell her that if she absolutely hates it at the end of freshman year that you’ll let her go back to public school.  I’m sure the prospect of starting a new school not knowing anyone is scary.   Once she settles in and has friends it will be easier for her to truly evaluate the experience.  [/quote]

I was going to suggest a shadow day and also see if you can speak to current parents. That will help you decide if it is truly the best place for your DC.[/quote]

I've spoken to other parents on St. X for 3 years now, and know the families very well, and their kids' experiences.  I even know the best teachers, the curriculum, the sports program.  and like any school, the negatives.
With all this, I KNOW St. X is the right school.  That is not in question a bit.

This is about my dd being 13, immature and not knowing what is best for her overall growth.  I also won't let my kids sit and play video games and social media all day, because I know what's best for them.

If you are so certain then why did you post this question on an anonymous forum where most posters are outside your region??? [/quote]
