Right now I am in the school I have been in all my life. It's full of tight cliques cluttered with generation after generation of the same families and their snobby behaviors. Frankly, I'm tired of it. My best friend finally got out this last year and now goes to another school in our area, but since I don't have the option of that school I though maybe i could tranfer to the last of the three schools around here.

The school I wish to transfer too is alot bigger than mine, its in the middle of town instead of in the middle of the valley (they arent farmers). They are much more ethnically diverse unlike mine who has one black student. They have much more money and it's been proven they are more academically advanced and challenged. The only down side to this school I could come up with is the students at my school have spread lies around and it's mostly circulated at that school. One of my friends a year back moved there because of the same problems I'm having and it took him quite some time to get them to see the real him and not the person he was made out to be. I'm afraid I can't do this. My social skills.. well they suck, plain and simple. And the school is so BIG. I'm really nervous that if I switch I won't be able to find my way around for a while or really find my place. What should I do?
