[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You think she’ll be ready at 5 but you’ll hold her back because the school suggests it? What’s so great about this school? I think it’s nuts to try and decide now too when your kid is 3. The decision to hold back is personal and should not be up to the school. Only way I’d let the school have a say is if DD was in their preschool program and that teacher who had firsthand knowledge of my kid suggested it. [/quote] NP. It is pretty typical for privates to have an informal cutoff for kindergarten in the spring. The last private I worked at had a stated requirement that kids reach their 5th birthday by Sept. 1, which matched our state public requirement. But in practice, kids with spring and summer birthdays were offered admissions to the transitional kindergarten program and/or told to try again next year.[/quote]
