[quote=Anonymous]Do any of your DD’s HS classmates attend the same school? I ask because another mom might be able to share some observations or insights from her kid’s experience at the same school (or even the kid’s observation of your DD). I fully agree with not just letting her look into transferring, but helping her look into other places she might like better. Real, robust conversations about what she thought she wanted in a school when she applied and how the reality has been different might help her identify schools that are a good fit. Maybe also encourage her to talk with her HS friends at other schools to find out what their experiences have been ,Ike (not just on social media) or even visit them to get a sense of what other schools are like. Ideally, she gets in somewhere else AND things turn around this semester and she can make a choice among good options, not just one to get away from what seems now like a “bad” option.[/quote]
