Maybe you could take a deep breath, go in there and talk to the counselor or
teacher or whoever, and say with all possible bravado something like:

"My daughter wants to try school. I don't want her to, but it's really
important to me to give her educational freedom. I'm going to enroll her
and give you two weeks to wow her. If she loves it after two weeks, I'll let
her stay as long as she's having fun. If after two weeks she's ambivalent or
it seems like the same nonsense I expect it to be, she'll be gone. Just
wanted to give you a fair shot at keeping her in."
