Switching schools, Please Reply Soon!
Hey, I am 16f. I have a pretty good school. The only things bad about it is that my "so called" best friend is back. She totally disgusts me from touching my brother, flirting with him, and totally making out with him (long story short) She just totally dumped me for my brother who is a jerk, who drinks, and has two other girls besides her. He doesnt really care for her, but she still is crazy over him, and it is making me frustrated, even though im trying my best to ignore them. My brother graduated last year. My point is she was at my school for the longest time, We were BEST friends. But now after school she comes over every night and makes out with my brother. At the beggining of this year she decided to switch schools which was the best thing for me, since she and him still bugs me, expecially since I have to look at her decieving face when she comes with my bro, you know? Anyhow, now she has came back to my school and is very loud in class (it comes naturally), is rude, and is so blonde (really) she had to ask what two times two was one time. Another thing is, our classes are all split now, grades 10/11, 11/12, and 10/11/12! I have no idea if I am actually learning grade 11 material, which is why I was considering switching schools. My mom had asked me if I wanted to switch to a school 15 minutes away, and said I had until the end of the semester to decide.. but now she said she found forms and I have to decide TOMORROW. What should I do?! At this moment, im thinking its too early to decide.. and I've been at this school all my life. Maybe im just worried about leaving my confort zone.. But what do you think?

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Well, I would say that you shouldn't switch schools just because your ex-best friend bugs you. Sorry if there's more to it than that. Just going by what you told me.
The thing is though with that girl and your brother: Your brother is going to have girlfriends. It's a given. I know that it's got to be wicked uncomfortable when its one of your friends. But that's not your friend (ex-friend)'s fault. I wouldn't say she was betraying you or anything by dating/making out with your brother. Gross, yes. Betrayal, no. Things happen. Most times, you can't control who you fall for.
If there's another reason why you two don't get along that you didn't mention, then I'm sure it's a good one.
Now back to the switching schools thing. Academically, if you don't feel like you're learning at the right level, then yes by all means I would switch. I know however that in my school, it's all pretty much the same level every grade(the high school level), just different subjects. And then you can choose to challenge yourself more by taking an Honors or AP course. Not sure if that's how it works in your school though.
The point is basically that you should feel comfortable in your school. But remember that everybody goes through frustration and unpleasant times in any school. It's part of growing up. While you might not have to go through the same exact situation again, there's bound to be something else that will spring up somewhere. And you can't just keep repeatedly switching schools every time you hit an obstacle. You learn to work with them. ;]
Good luck.
