18. I switched my daughter to a school like this

The school celebrates differences and encourages respect for all. So, many of the students are highly artistic. Some are very academic, some gay or lesbian, and some are typical teens. I wouldn't call this a dork school but rather one where the typical 'popular kid' crowd doesn't rule. I think it reflects my college and life experience much better than my HS experience.

As an aside, have you ever been back to a HS reunion. I went to one or two and those popular kids and bullies were often the least successful. The different kids and the nerds were the successful ones from my HS. One of the saddest comments was hearing one ex-cheerleader tell me HS was the best period of her life. :wow:
