[quote=Anonymous]Our DC has a late summer birthday, and will be starting Pre-K 3 as a young 3yo this fall. With this birthday, redshirting is potentially a possibility to consider. We don't actually know whether we will want to redshirt-- we will wait to see how kiddo does in pre-school, talk to teachers, etc. So, not asking advice on that question yet. My question for the forum is: how does redshirting actually work, especially in DCPS? Can parents just decide (probably not, I'm assuming)? Does the school need to recommend? Are there specific junctures (like, before Kindergarten) that make sense? Further info: kiddo is starting in a DC pre-school this fall which only goes through pre-k, so no matter what, we'll be changing schools before Kindergarten. Our operating assumption is that we'll end up in our local DCPS elementary, but we haven't ruled out parochial or private, and I imagine they might all operate differently on this. Thanks! [/quote]
