[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did the Early Entrance to Kindergarten for my DS. He thrived in school and thankfully was tall enough that it was not an issue in sports etc. He is now a sophomore in HS and has excelled in all ways at school and socially. Know your kid. If he/she will thrive in the classroom by all means apply for the EEK. He had to take a test and was observed by the school teachers before he was given admission. He knew counting, reading and writing before he took the test, but I do not think that is as important as the social maturity and EQ of the children. [/quote] I am not trying to be snarky but what advantage or positive outcome does he have, in the long run, by going to kindergarten early?[/quote] Being with peers at the same social and academic level (being challenged appropriately, alleviating boredom).
