My dd is probably going to high school for grade 10 in the fall. She's been homeschooled up to this point. When we tell people she's considering public school, we get negative reactions, surprisingly. Some of these people were a little leery when we announced we were homeschooling a few years ago. Now they're warning us about gang fights, bullying, etc. etc. , especially about the school that our dd will probably go to. I realize school is different now than it was 20-30 years ago but is it really that bad? I admit I was a little nervous about the possibility of our daughter going to high school but after touring it and meeting with the vice principal and a counsellor, we felt quite good about it. But I still would like some responses from people who have "been there, done that". Also, was it hard to adjust to a routine, going to different classes, having homework at night, that kind of thing. TIA.
