That can be a scary time. What can make it really scary is the unknown of the new school. I would try to make arrangements to take to visit her new school. Many schools have an orientation for new students where they give the students a tour of the school and tell them what to expect during the day. Also, if she has any friends who will be going there that could help as well.

This is very hard for all of
them but like the others
said i would just keep
telling her that all her
friends that she has
been in school with will
be there and that it will
be fun and cool to go to
this school and that she
will get to meet new kids
and new teachers who will
help her to adjust also call
the school and see if they
are going to have a oration
for her to see her class and
to meet the other classmates
and her teacher i know that
our schools do that so just
keep up the good work at
last you care enough to ask
for help also remember that
Jesus loves you both and good
luck and god bless you both
and if you have any more
questions you can im me

I would thoroughly examine why it is that your child does not want to go. And seriously consider the homeschooling option if at all possible. schools are not primarily institutions of learning, though information is available there your child must want to learn and remember it, it is primarily concerned with teaching kids-- to obey. and not just obedience but obedience to an imposed authority, not one which they have chosen to recognize as such for a reason.

i would remind her that this transition is something everyone goes through, and they do fine..
also, conciously try to build her confidence more before school starts... point out her talents, remind her when she's done a good job, let her know that she is intelligent, a good friend, etc. if you are subtle about this, it should help her have more self confidence and make her transition easier.
good luck

Its not scary at all... just give her special privelages at that age like extra tv time, or later bed time(just like 1/2 hour)... then maybe she will look forward to growing up a little more.

Buy her some books on the subject. BORDERS has several wonderful books on starting middle school.
