[quote=Anonymous]A birthday in the fall means she is about to be 10, so that's on the older side for 4th grade. It sounds like she would graduate at age 17, which is still well with normal for maturity and age distribution. I would let her get bumped up, assuming that she is willing. If she wants to stay at the current grade, they need to give her more challenging work. Even rotate to the 5th grade for certain subjects. If she is hesitant because of the social stigma, I'd see if they could implement the 5th grade curriculum and make the grade jump to sixth grade next year. She won't stand out as much when everyone is making a school change. [/quote]
