Thanks Yearasta 🙂 That really eases my mind. While I won't be bringing the girls down with me at first, I am thinking of bringing them down next year after I've had a chance to settle in.

My Thanks as well to all, for both the candor and specifics.

Another question: This was brought up and addressed some but I would like to ask that those in the know address it more in depth. One of my big concerns when considering relocating my older kids to STT are the social and acceptability aspects. They will be starting high school this year and I am wondering if there is much in the way of race / nationality or local versus non local issues within the schools? I'm hoping it's just kids hanging out with other kids with similar interest, (and no doubt, taste in clothes).

Again, thanks and your candor is greatly appreciated

If you are moving high school age kids here from the states, be sure to include private school tuition in your budget. The social issues in the high schools here are not "just kids hanging out with other kids with similar interest, (and no doubt, taste in clothes)."

Since the public schools all wear uniforms the clothing issue is somewhat muted.

Totally agree...High School aged kids coming in from the states...I would seriously consider private school.
