Sept birthday: put DD in K early or stick out another year of paying for preschool?

I’d never put a typically developing child in early. Why set them up to possibly struggle? Also, they’d be two years younger than the red shirted kids.

Don’t be cheap. Keep paying and send her in time.

I started my late summer birthday girl on time. It was the right choice. She is the tallest kid in her class, academically advanced, and hit puberty at age 10. She would feel like an odd one out in a younger grade.

This. And it’s not a slam dunk test - the smartest kids I know didn’t make it.
