[quote=Anonymous]We went through this and the posting responses of frequent meetings...then head of (lower, middle, upper) school meeting...then meeting with HoS are the accurate indicators.  Definitely not an easy process but as other folks have pointed out if you end up at a better fit school then it was the best course of action.

In our case several weeks after our child started at the previous school we weren't sure it was a good fit and were seriously looking for a better fit school.  The administration of the school we left, however, treated us horribly and without respect or understanding during the process.  Not great to go through but made our decision a no brainer.  We subsequently found out there was bullying going on (once in a safer school our child began telling us about incidents at the previous school) that explained some issues with our child's behavior and we have had no behavioral issues at all at the new school.  Child is so much happier everyday going to school and it pains us that we did not see this about the previous school (we ended up only being there for 2.5 months, but still.)

One thing to be aware of is if you leave during the school year you will only get about 60% of the unused remaining tuition even with tuition insurance.  Not a deal breaker, but good to know ahead of time.

Best of luck--it does get better!  [/quote]
