<p>There is a possibility I will be transferring high schools for my junior year. For my college apps, can I still ask a teacher from my old high school for a recommendation? I understand that it is usually better to ask junior and senior teachers, however a few particular teachers from my old school stand out as knowing me extremely well and have been influential to me. I am confused because I remember reading somewhere that you have to ask teachers from your <em>current</em> school. Could someone clarify, please? Thanks!</p>
<p>For your main teacher recommendations, I’d stick to teachers from your new school. Ones that haven’t seen you since you were a high school sophomore may not have as much to say about you once you’re a senior. If you really want to add another, you could ask one of the teachers from your old high school to write a supplementary LOR if you really think they’ll have something new and important to say about you.</p>
