Parents want me to change schools.

I just started highschool at one of the best public schools in the area, and I really love it. But now my parents want me to start going to a private college prep school. It's a 45 min. drive, and I'd have to ride one of the schools 'long distance buses' in the morning and after school since my parents are at work. I really don't want to spend 2 hours a day riding the school bus. Plus I don't know anyone at that school. I'm afraid the kids would be snobby, because it's in a wealthy area and costs $15,000 a year. I'm use to going to a school where 60% of the kids live below the poverty line. But my parents say it's for my future, and I'm going. How can I convince them to let me stay?

well it depends how you feel just tell them exactley what you feel but be carefull of what you say dont want to say the wrong thing just explain that your doin well in the school your in that its not really needed for you to go to a different school just tell them give you a chance that year and if they dont see anythin they like then its there choice just to give a chance for that year 1st

Say since its YOUR future, YOU don't want to go.
I mean if all this is for your future, shouldn't you have a say in it??
Your going to be living it not them.

cookie is right just tell them how you feel. pick your moment right and just sit down and talk with them. Explain how much this school means to you. Oh and tears always help
