[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at a school of mixed middle class and poor kids. All the poor kids go on time. The middle class summer boys are majority red-shirted. Spring boys go on time but very occasionally there is a spring redshirt. Uncommon for girls to be held back. [/quote] My niece who is 2 1/2 months before cutoff redshirted. They had free childcare (my FIL) and since she was very petite - wanted to give her the gift of time. [note - she is the top student in her class of now 5th graders, still the smallest in the grade][/quote]
