My son is in the 8th grade. He has played football for 2 years and cannot wait to play high school football and dreams of playing college and then pro one day. The question I have is, we, my husband and I have recently purchased a weekend home in a small town and we really love it there. The school my children would go to is sooooo small there is no football there and no band but, my children would get so much more help academically ( i think) 1:8 teacher student ratio where we live now it is 1:25. School enrollment all grade levels is only like 400 kids. My oldest daughter is on honor roll in band and is active in everything at her high school of 2000 students now. I have explained to them that in a small town their chances of scholarships are GREATER yet, my children do not want to move. We currently live in the city and violence is EVERYWHERE... WHAT SHOULD WE DO?
