The campaign has been difficult for Barron, and she is really hoping to keep disruption to a minimum.”
Jason Miller, communications director for Trump's transition team, told reporters during a call Sunday morning that the issue is still up in the air, according to the Daily Beast, but an NBC News correspondent reported a summer move was in the plans.

Besides the strange optics of the First Family being split apart, some expressed concerns about the cost of extra Secret Service protection continuing at Trump Tower. Security operations there have already caused traffic nightmares.
In 2008, after Barack Obama won the presidency, there was similar talk of daughters Malia and Sasha remaining in Chicago but, ultimately, the girls moved to D.C. in January 2009, switching schools mid-year.
