Talk to your parents now about how you feel in a rational way. Perhaps some arrangements can be made, especially with internet. texting , skype. keeping in contact is not difficult if they were to agree to allow you to stay in Texas so that you could enjoy your senior year with the people that you grew up with. Legally, you would be a runaway absent consent.
