[quote=Anonymous]At our private, new 9th graders are slightly above new 6th graders in terms of academic performance on average by the time of graduation. They spend 9th grade catching up on expectations on homework, but are normally very smart. New 6th graders are on average better than kids that started in K. There is a sizable percentage of the class that started in kindergarten that would not get in if they applied for 9th grade and may have some trouble in 6th grade admissions. I’m actually glad they don’t counsel them out because I don’t want an entire class of gunners. Transfers from K-8 privates tend to be strong.[/quote]
