Can being counseled out actually be a good thing? Though it might sound counter-intuitive, George Higgins backs up this statement with 34 years of experience at The Beekman School. In an interview for About.com, he reminds us that "school is everything to kids.

"It’s not always academic reasons that cause kids to leave schools—there can be many factors."-----------------------
