[quote=Anonymous]I believe it depends on the age and school you are looking at. I have a five year old who is turning five in August and am dealing with this situation. He has done K in DCPS but I want him redshirted. So here are my options: 1) get the principal to agree to hold him back, which in our very particular situation is on the table, but if your kid doesn’t have special needs and struggled this school year, it’s Unlikely you will qualify here. 2) If school does not agree to hold back, I withdraw him from DCPS for the year and put him into private K then enroll him Back in DCPS for 1st grade next year. I may also opt to homeschool this year depending on what the coronavirus situation is. If your child has not done a formal K yet, no, they cannot force him into 1st grade. You just enroll him into K.[/quote]
