How to advise your high school kid when they pick a school because friends might go there?

doing a week away at a college-based camp of some sort will probably not be in the cards this summer. But D24 is going on a HS-sponsored trip to France w/some classmates & 2 teachers at the end of this school year. So there will be some growing there at the end of May

I think the suggestion of some away thing was made to find a thing that did NOT involve others from her high school. She could see that common interests can foster new friendships.
