Moving...
We r moving to a new house but I dont want to go to a different school. My parents act like the don't care and they said if I want to stay at the school I go to now I have to stay with my aunt or my grandma Monday through Friday. And the two other schools I can choose from 1.) is too ghetto for me 2.) has to much drama/ they don't let me talk to my friend that goes there/ their bratty. I really don't want to leave my friends either they all really need me right now and one is becoming a little suicidal. I really need help.

Changing schools is always hard. It is even harder to do in the middle of a school year as each school, even though the curriculums may be the same, the teaching methods and the pace they teach at differ. You could find yourself behind or ahead of the new school in the same year of education.
Since I feel it important that you complete the school year at the school you are presently in and the option is available to do so. I am going to suggest you spend the remainder of this year with either you grandmother or aunt. This will allow you to stay in your school for this year and give you a chance to see if this is something you wish to do until you graduate. Sort of a trial run since there is just over two months left to the year.
If this arrangement is not to your liking then you can visit the other two schools over the summer. You can talk to the principals and find out more about the schools then what you may have heard about them. You just may have the wrong impression of one or both of the schools.
In either case my suggestion allows you to stay in your present school with your friends and to watch over your one friend. I will suggest in the case of your one friend who you feel is becoming suicidal. If you feel this way you need to tell a teacher, principal or her/his parents about what you suspect or may have been told.
I know you feel that telling someone how you feel or what this friend may have told you will ruin a friendship. Ask yourself this question. Would you rather lose a friend or attend their funeral? For these are the realistic options of trying to take the middle road on something like this.
As a young person yourself there is very little you can do or say that may cause a determined person not to commit suicide. It takes doctors and trained medical professionals to help heal whatever is hurting your friend to cause him or her to want to take such drastic action.
