[quote=Anonymous]The only way I would consider it would be if tye kid was one of those who was held hack a year originally and shoukd be a sixth grader this year if he started on time. My kid had a classmate like that. He was held back a year by his parents and started kindergarten a year late. In second he was more advanced than most of the kids (due to age) and qualified for AAP. By fourth grade he passed most classmates physically, and by fifth/sixth was definitely not a good fit socially, since his behavior, sice and developmemt were more in line with middle schoolers than elementary kids. He was definitely not a stand out academically in AAP and I think (from the outside looking in) that he would have probably been better off socially in the correct grade and academically in the correct grade, even if that meant he wasn't in AAP.
