Or should kids just leave their stuffed animals at home?
My daughter took a few to college.
My kid brought a life sized cheetah and shark. He has a strong sense of the ridiculous.
Yes! Lots of kids bring one or two to keep the bed company while they are in class.
Many do. If you want to bring some, go for it.
DS brought a menagerie.
I know someone who has a big stuffed bunny in her room. And she’s a senior. 
Ohhhh yes, I will be bringing quite a few stuffed animals with me. Who would expect me to leave behind my tiger Shifani or my giraffe Bakuri? That is out of the question.
Why not?
This is the purest question on this site I love it and totally bring one if you want. You do you!
Definitely!
@revellodream and if you choose to attend SPS, your can bring your stuffed animal to the Blessing of the Pets ceremony in fall. That alone is a reason to Say Yes to SPS!

@GoatMama What?! That is insanely cool
And @revellodream I’m sure you can bring stuffed animals!
@GoatMama That sounds so fun!!!
@revellodream what @GoatMama describes may be an episcopal school thing because SMS did that, too! They even blessed their mascot, kids had pictures, stuffed animals and some even FaceTimed their pets at home.
