Arts High School or Regular High School Decisions!

Tatyanah has to make a choice between to go an Arts School or a great high school close to home! We are struggling with the decision....whats your opinion and thoughts?

Art School
  I can tell you the reason for the Arts school is simple, the kids and staff are incredible. The learning is very arts based and it is involved learning. She will be surrounded by a lot of great people and opportunities to grow as a person in many many areas. The school does not have cliques, it is so weird and amazing.

It is far from home. She will be able to take a bus to school daily but if she needs me to get her after school it will take me about 40 mins to get there. She participates in a lot of after school activities.

Regular High School
The school offers everything she wants to take and it is close to home. She can join any clubs she wants any sports without the distance. If she needs a ride, I am 10 mins away.

The kids are very cliquey in our city. The are a lot of kids that base their identity in 'what they have' and not on who they are, it is a regular school system and I have always had issue with the get the grade but not processing or learning anything.


Regardless of where she goes she wants to attend post secondary, it is easy to do so with both schools. As parents, we want her to have an enriched learning experience. But lets be honest, it is a bit of a drive and that may be hard too.


What do you think???
