What should I do?

I am currently enrolled in online school. My friends think I should go to high school in August. I'm not sure if I want to stay online or go to brick and mortar. My mom said I have to decide by Friday b/c that's the enrollment day. I just need some opinions. Maybe from people who've already been through high school and loved it or hated it.

Well, I'm in high school~ ^^
You get to interact with people and make new friends. 😉
[I haven't made any new ones though. Lol. XD]

But it's worth the experience~

@rileytibbles_side Go to brick and mortar. It's good for character, and helps you figure out your identity and future. 😊

@darthvader
Definitely leaning towards that! Thanks!😸

Don't know how it's in USA but I loved my high school experience 😸 4 years out and if you offered, I'd go back in a second 😃

This is coming from someone who really didn't care much for high school at all:

honestly, as much as I disliked it because of my issues with anxiety and nervous habits (both of which I still have anyway), I am happy I kept doing the "traditional" thing instead of staying at home at a computer. I just don't think that would have done me any better, even if it would have helped with some of my social anxiety issues. I am now a relatively satisfied college student who, as I said, still has some issues with anxiety. But I'm working on it.

There's my personal experience. I'm not really trying to convince you of anything because at the end of the day, it's your choice and only you know what's best for you.😊

And fyi, I never went to prom or homecoming or anything like that. But I did go on my senior trip to Chicago, and couldn't be happier that I did.😊
