Lots of people see their kids this way. In the last month teo friends have told me they see their tween/teen developing into a sweet but odd duck. Quirky and the moms sensed they would be left out because of their personality. I am sorry bc I can see how this would cause angst.

Let her be herself, but I agree with pp, if it gets bad you should be prepared to change schools.
I’ve taught in private schools and some years a grade would just be toxic (sometimes suddenly). Ours was large enough that usually kids could find their niche, but it’s a really hard thing for a school to fight against.
