They have picked on her since last year. Now she has started fighting them,should I transfer her to another school? The school doesn't seem to have any answers. Would this be running away from a problem? I just want her to smile again.

I had intense issues with both boys and girl in school, and i begged my mom to transfer me but she didn't. It started a huge issue in my young life where I would cut school and didn't do my work because I hted being there everyday and found it almost impossible to concentrate.
I would wait itout ths year and transfer her next year. Perhaps put her in a summer camp or something to help build her communication skills and self esteem. so next year at her new school she'll be hopefully over last year and not allow it to affect her.
Also u should get in contact with a councilman (my mom did) and let the school know that harrasment isn't just sexual, these girls are harrassing ur daughter and if they don't do something u will sue the girls as well as the school, for harrasment and the school for neglect.
If u do all this I think it should work, my mom won her battle and Iknow u will too!
Good Luck I'll keep u in my prayers

Transfer her if you think it will help but you might want to look into what's causing the problems. If she's having trouble relating to the other kids, she may need some training or counseling to keep it from happening again. I'm definitely not saying that she's the one to blame but I did have a couple of friends who transferred repeatedly and kept having problems with the kids in the new school because of how they reacted to things. If they had gotten help earlier they might have had fewer problems.
Another option if a transfer isn't possible is to find a trusted teacher at the school to keep an eye out. I had trouble with a friend of a friend who didn't want me in the group. I had one class with her so it was the only time I couldn't stay out of her way. My parents and I talked to that teacher and he made sure he supervised the hall before and after that class to make sure problems didn't start. If something like that is a possibility it's a lot less trouble than a transfer can be.

When my daughter was in the sixth grade and had this problem, I told school and made them bring these girls in to the office to talk to them, it curbed the situation somewhat all but a couple, so I knew the parents and called them and made them aware what the girls were doing and then it ceased... but if all attempts to get school involved fail yes i would transfer your daughter....

As adults we don’t have to put up with this (we can call the police and file harassment charges, get restraining orders, etc) so why should children?
If transferring schools is an option, I'd do it without hesitation.

YES transfer her for sure. That happened to me my senior year of high school and the whole year was miserable and i wish my mom would have transferred me. I am now older and have not forgotten it.
