[quote=Anonymous]How hard is it to get a DCPS exception for birth date-based grade requirements? My daughter's preschool recommended that she repeat PK4 instead of going to kindergarten next year. She is the youngest child in her class (she has an August birthday), is small for her age, and is a little slow at developing gross motor skills. Based on the ASQ-3 questionnaire and a special evaluation by a developmental specialist at the preschool, they drafted a letter recommending that DCPS allow her to repeat PK4. I contacted the principal for our in-boundary elementary school and he said he is required to follow DCPS policy on on DOB-based grade placement and that I should contact DCPS if I want an exception. I plan on calling the DCPS Enrollment Team (202-478-5738), but does anyone have any tips or experience with something like this? Thanks![/quote]
