She'll make new friends. Think of it this way...
Imagine talking to your future 35 year old daughter weighing the decision for her own child and having to share that you didn't put her in an advanced academic curriculum despite clear demonstration of merit because you thought 7 year old friends were a more important consideration.
Not putting her in was never an option. It's just a matter of putting her in this coming August or the one after that.
