[quote=Anonymous]For those considering a move and hemming and hawing about long term outcomes v. the fact that parent and child are miserable at current school, our experience is that by the time you're at that point, you should have done it already. It's entirely normal to worry about the disruption, to worry about whether things will be better elsewhere, etc.. We were in that boat and moved our (admittedly middle, not high school) child and it was 100% the right decision. A friend's daughter switched schools between 10th and 11th grades and they are so glad they made the leap. If you make a move during high school, sure, it's possible you'll need to explain it as part of the college application process. But it's truly not the big deal we often build it up to be in our heads. Keep in mind lots of families move during high school, and those kids obviously go on to great college experiences. You're not as locked in as the school would like you to think.[/quote]
