[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Competitive private school prefer the child be closer to 6 year old. You will be asking for them to make an exception for you when they can pick and choose from many bright children. [/quote] Agreed, though depending on the definition of "summer," a summer girl is not that far off - if she is July 4, that is pretty normal. They tend to be more concerned with boys. One of my kids is mid-June and was quite tall and when we were considering private elementary they were hinting they wanted him to stay back. He was somewhat socially immature for his age but not horrible and was ahead of grade level academically (however one measures that for a kid that age). Now 10ish years later I am so glad we didn't do that.[/quote] can you share more? i have this dilemma, tall son, cognitively advanced, but prone to bouts of silliness and immaturity and wanted to hold him back/redshirt but not sure if that will be weird given his height[/quote]
