The wonderful thing about doing theater is that group is generaly really welcoming. Have you done anything in your community outside of school?

Kids move, life changes, families have divorces, financial dramas, and all kinds of stuff. This isn’t the worst thing to happen, and you are lucky you have a family that is behind you and will do all they can. And that you are leaving your old school with good relationships. Focus on that. If kids from much worse schools, and much worse circumstances can get into great schools, so can you. Colleges admission people are smart and will see the differences in the two schools, and I would bet that in the next few years will see a lot more kids who went to more than one highschool.

You will gbe fine and just take care of business. Most colleges are interested in your first three years and what you will do POTENTIALLY as a senior. When you apply ED or EA they don’t even see much of your senior year activities, just what you say you will do, and if some shifts because you moved schools, it is okay. If you can’t work on schools paper, find a local neighborhood paper and ask if you can help. A slightly upward/lateral move!! If oyu did theater, do it for new school. You may not be leadership, but you can still have fun and contribute and the colleges will “get it”
