Q: hey, i'm a sophomore in high school and i attend an all girls school. I've been at this school since freshman year and it's a really great school. It's great academically and the activities are great, but their's one problem.. and that's the social aspect. I've been thinking about transferring because I really don't fit in at school at all. I am in honors classes and i take an AP class and i've been in class with basically the same girls and i don't fit in with them at all. They are so different from me and i've given them a chance and it doesn't work. I've talked to a lot of people that aren't in my classes that i'm in theatre with, but it isn't working for me. THeirs another school in my area thats a boy/girl school that i coudl transfer to. i don't know if maybe that would be a better option, i could start over and make new freinds .. i just don't know if its worth risking my good academic standings at my current school and the awesome extracurriculars. does anybody have any advice?? i seriously dont know what to do anymore i've been crying all week. it really sucks and it just wears on me not having any friends at school. please please please help... and let me know what you would do in my situations. thanks. any advice is appreciated-- all advice will be rated a 5.

I really admire your dedication to your education. I think that you should consider the other school. But here is what I would do before you get the transfer in the works: check out the classes, make sure your AP classes transfer, electives, etc. The academic stuff. Find out college stuff, like how many go to what schools, the guidance counselor stuff, the important stuff you'll really need junior and senior year. Second, check out the scene. How bad would it be if you thought the kids were snobs, or jerks? try and see if you can get in touch with anyone from there- maybe if you can audit a class or a day there and see what its like. Then, if all of that seems cool, go for it. High School is hard and stressful enough, you should have friends to share the good times with.
Good luck and keep me posted.
