[quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP with the "difficult situation" - and it's not really that big of a deal or unique. I asked everyone how they would handle my son - mid September birthday, diagnosed ADHD, academically average - enroll him when his birthdate suggested, or redshirt. Then I asked why they recommended that course of action, and if I chose the course they didn't recommend, what could I expect my school year to look like. Of the eight principals I spoke with, six said to send him "on time" and all six of those K teachers didn't answer the question at all. The other two principals asked more follow up questions about my son specifically to get a better gage, then said that while they would, of course, be able to meet his needs whenever, he sounded like a good redshirting candidate. One K teacher was very blunt with the positives and negatives I could expect to find either way and tailored her response to the things I had mentioned specifically about my son.[/quote]
