[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former Brent mom whose child has just transferred to a charter school for 5th, I will say that it I snot easy. Many tears shed. Missing friends that have stayed on at Brent (gone are the days when hardly anyone would stay for 5th-- seems most kids stayed this year.) Missing teachers and opportunities at Brent -- school musical, etc. And middle school is a BIG change. Taking a bus to school rather than walking with parents and the whole set up have having more teachers and more classrooms and a bigger school. But kids are resilient. Our child is actually happy for the change-- they felt ready for something new. It's a messy mix of emotions. Fingers crossed.[/quote] I think even the ones that stay wish they had left. That is how my kid feels - wishes he was having more challenge and doing something new. [/quote]
