[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 463537, member: 1233"] Don't assume the better school has less drugs. Have you actually visited the school? You don't have to talk about his problems, but a visit might help you get a feel for if they offer things that would interest him. If possible, pack a lunch and spend a couple hours in a park, watching what goes on in the neighborhood. I actually thing the improving school would be better because chances are the adults are paying more attention, trying to work with the kids more rather than knowing they are on top and all is good at their school. I went to a jr high that previously had a super bad rep for drugs, but the year before I went there a new principal and vp came in. We got away with very little, they just had their eyes open and did a lot of things to keep improving the school. Friends in the "good" jr high that year were drinking during class, but since they were at the "good" school no one even suspected it. But that is just a thought. [/QUOTE]
