Help!... please ;.;

Well its the beginning of a new school year and i'm pretty screwed D: 1

It's been five days into school and I already need some serious advice: 2

I currently go to this annoying private school.... teachers are decent, good class sizes, classwork is fine and seems like everything would be good....
except the people are crap
every single person is like the exact clone of the other. they all have their hair parted the same way, roll their uniforms (yes, ickky uniforms) the same way and wear the same belts and shoes. two of my friends i've known for a long while go with me, but i'm still not sure about the school3

on the other hand, there is this other public school i might be able to go to. there are like thousands of people in the high school, tonns and tons of homework, some teachers are horrible and scary. but the thing is, all my wonderlicious friends go there and i would have the majority of my classes with them. and plus they all say the school is awesome and love it. part of me just feels really alone while the other wants to go there and have an awesome high school experience. i'm pretty sure i could convince my parents to switch me, but i might not be with these friends anymore cause it might be too late. also the private school was really expensive, so i'd feel guilty about switching. 4

so i dnt really know, switch? risk leaving the prestigious high school with annoyingly preppy people who i'd never want to speak to, or going to the incredibly difficult yet fun high school and take the risk of going there. 5

any advice?

    I went to private schools from 4th grade through my senior year. Most of my teachers were decent, class sizes were better than they were in public school. The classwork and fine, too.

    The people weren't all bad. We also had to were uniforms. The cheerleaders were the only ones that I noticed would roll their uniform skirts. I don't remember anyone in the school being cookie cutter.

    It's your choice. Each new school I went to made me want to go back to the old one just because I had friends there and I barely knew anyone at the new school. The longer I was at the new school the more I liked it. You've only been there a few days. You never know. Things could start to look up. Give it some time and if things don't start looking up then give switching another thought.

    Eeew! i know how u feel! at my old school everyone was cookie cutter. i was always trapped in my group of freaks and nerds (ha ha which i love). and like you my friends also turned to the dark side. i think that you should stay at the private school for educational purposes. thats what its there for right? ha ha ah well i hope that the problem eases up and you get some time to breathe and determing what to do talk to you later

      Thanks for the help! I love my friends to death, I'm just afraid I would be too far behind because their school would be going into their 3rd week already. None of them have turned to the dark side just yet And I guess before i only thought private schools were for rich people that needed help (and I was kinda right) xD I just want to make up my mind before its too late.

      -Thanks a lot

    I am so sorry for you
    Krop is great (it grows on you) but Heritage will offer you a lot that Krop can't. Of course, your wonderlicious friends and I would be super duper happy if you came to Krop with us , but try not to be so drastic. It's only the first week of Heritage. Try stick it out for a year ($ for books not wasted, even though I don't think the money is a big issue if going somehwere else is better for you) and try to stay positive. If your feelings haven't changed by next year then I say yes to a transfer .

      i know, and like i said, i'd be a total waste of money and i'd feel guilty. i'd like to go to krop, but i'd be SOOO behind and i dont really want to be failing. though gabi said that i wouldn't be... but i'm still not sure.
      its just that i dnt really... fit in well there
      trust me, i'm trying hard to stay positive, especially for gio and everything... i just don't want to waste a perfectly good year of my short 4 year high school experience with preppy snobs that try to be all punk and cool

        If you had to randomly show up on tuesday then you would be a little behind, but some of the teachers would be cool about it and your wonderlicious friends and I would help you out with the work
        ughhh Heritage does sound a little strange and I totally get where you're coming from
        try stay happy (bc happiness is healthy lol) but ultimately the option of transfering is up to you. It's a serious choice so think about for a bit..
        I'm here if you need me

          like im just scared that i'd be really far behind and the teachers would hate me.
          its a really serious choice... probably the one of the hardest i would have to make and i'm really not sure. i cant switch later in the year cause i'd be REALLY far behind. also i dont want to leave gio alone, but i think she will meet people.
          its not like heritage people are horrible, its just that they are all clones.

    I say do it. Yes money could be wasted but ifit allows you to have a fun education then go for it.I go to public school. Not all teachers are scary, some are pretty crazy but generally hilarious and make me crack up others are a bit strict but fun as well.They only want whats best for you and your education. Yes public school has 'clicks' but whatevs screw them and hang with your friends. Thats the best advice I can give.

    I hear you honey

    Well if you truly want to go to learn as much as you can to move forward the preppy school is your best bet .You can learn probably just as much at the other school but their will be many distractions and the public schools have their own little clicks as well . I have a feeling as time goes on all the schools are probably going to end up wearing uniforms for the schools dont want gang colors and things like that in the school shown . Many yung people in the public schools I dont think get as good an education for the teachers are truly wore out. So the decision should be do I want to fight for what I can learn at the public school or do I want safety and good teachers to help you succeed and even possibly move through school more quickly with scholarships for college .
