Hi just a quick summary, I am a single parent and I am finally managing to move out of the horrible place I live with two DDs- we move on August 1st, but eldest DD starts at school near my current shitty dump house this September.
However, the new house is 8 miles away, would you look into putting your child in the school at the new place, instead of the one she is currently enrolled in?
I am worried that if she doesnt go to the school in the tiny town we are moving to, she won't be able to make friends as easily there, or if she stayed at the school where we would have to drive 8 miles, she might miss out on socialising with those children becasue she isn't living in their town?! Or am i overthinking this massively?? Do kids make friends if they live in the same town but go to different schools? pfb alert
