[quote=Anonymous]First of all, stop calling it "redshirting". That implies it's about seeking an advantage in sports. Say that you want to place your child in the grade most suited to his development. Ask to meet with the principal, AP, or whichever person is most in charge of special education. Bring in the Early Stages stuff and be prepared to explain precisely why you believe a lower grade is the most appropriate placement. Because preschool is pretty flexible about ability and not super academic, DCPS is sometimes reluctant to hold kids back in preschool but willing to do so for K. So you'd have two years of PK4.[/quote]
