Triangles314, it’s ok to worry about outcomes. We don’t know your parents, but when a child is upset, many parents would worry a lot about sending that child away from home.

Looking at your other posts, it seems you’re not happy at your current school. If you’re about to enter high school, take heart. High school can be much more interesting than middle school. There are often more opportunities to explore interests in and out of the high school. Do a little online research about your local high school. What clubs does it offer? Is there a robotics club, a chess club, a newspaper, a band or orchestra? Such activities often allow kids to make friends with other kids with similar interests.

There are also online opportunities. If you feel bored because schoolwork is too easy, check out EdX. You can audit courses for free. You can start some courses at any time.
Also look at the resources listed on the Davidson Institute website. (search online for Davidson Institute.)
