I'm going to tell it like it is. I'm not bragging or dramatizing anything.
I am a 13-year-old girl and I am...well...pretty smart. I thought I was doing well and I really like school, but for some reason, I am doing really bad according to my last progress report...D's and F's with a few A's. I know I can do better. I was in montessori for 2nd grade and 5th grade and I really liked it. My mom thinks it's an 'organization' problem, but that seems like she's calling me a slacker. Once I went into middle school (I am in 8th grade right now), everything started going downhill. I love my school, teachers, and friends, but I am considering switching, after my mom said, "Maybe there's another way to teach you.". I've researched on Google, and there are no montessori highschools (at least in my state). It is quite impossible to be homeschooled. I am wondering what other types of schools are out there for me besides one of those "bad kid" boarding schools. Thanks for reading! <3 <3 <3

Also, there are religious schools. They tend to be smaller and more focused.
But if you like your school, why leave it? Talk to your teachers and your counselor, and ask them for advice. They can probably help you out. [ VixenDark's advice column | Ask VixenDark A Question ]
