[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that you can't redshirt in DC public schools if you start PK3 on time, at least without taking a year where your child is not in DC public schools. Bottom line - DC is paying for 15 years of education for your child (2 yrs PK, K, 1-12). They will not pay for 16 to give your kid an advantage over other kids. [/quote] +1 this is how it works in many public school districts. Once you are in a particular public system, you have to progress through their grades at the regular pace, at whatever point you started at, even if at a non-mandatory early entry point. Grade retention is getting very rare in public schools.[/quote]
