You have yet to provide examples of them being negatively affected “ emotionally, socially, physically, mentally, academically, etc.” You are just making stuff up because you’re mad Larla is getting silver stars and not gold. |
It's not "on time" if you have to fill out paperwork with the country checking a box that says "my child needs a maturity waiver to start one year later". You are legally allowed to do it, yes, but it is not "on time". Lol. |
there were already articles posted like 7 pages ago. |
Again, this is a fundamental problem with the GT programs, NOT the age of your snowflake’s classmates. |
Kids with October-December 2015 Bdays are in 3rd because they missed the cutoff. NY and the NYC area is the only area of the country that still uses a calendar year cutoff. Literally everywhere else in the US, the cutoff is anywhere between 7/31 and 10/1. EVERYWHERE. Kids with June 2015-September 2015 bdays may be in 3rd now or in 4th. My 8/2015 kid is in 3rd. I didn’t start him in Covid K. No way, sorry. There are a few other redshirted summer birthdays both boys and girls in his class. I’m not aware of any early 2015 kids in PUBLIC 3rd. It just isn’t really a thing. Private may be another story. |
No articles posted demonstrated any of these alleged negative effects. If they had you’d be able to quickly list them (but you can’t). |
You don’t need that to start a child at six where I live either. |
October or Nov 2015 is the normal age for the grade 2014 is what his classmates are and it's a redshirt age They were held back once, but were the oldest in the grade so it is a huge age gap with younger kids in the grade. They did Kinder in 2020. It was covid year. They are 10 years old in 3rd. |
Why is it a finite resource? If you meet the criteria, you should be in. If it’s finite take it up with the school. |
You too dumb to cite or? |
Was your school in person 2020-21? |
If GT was that important to you, then, you should have redshirted. In the other hand you don’t know that the next years’ classmates won’t have had 26 kids who score better and only 25 slots. Then who will you blame? |
you too lazy to scroll back 5 pages or? they've been posted. |
Those kids weren't red shirted they were held back! Its not the same! |
It’s obvious you didn’t even click on (let alone read) the links posted. You just assume someone else did the work for you and you can fall back on that with zero understanding. |
