[quote=Anonymous]Interesting. Current teachers say she is in the correct grade. I guess what I mean is, if these schools are only taking a couple of kids for her grade but 10-14 kids for the grade below, should we let the school know NOW that we are amenable to her repeating? Another option would be to wait to see if she is waitlisted and then let them know. My worry is that if we tell them now, they'll automatically shift her into the pool for the grade below, regardless whether she could have gotten into her current grade. By "helps their numbers," I have read on DCUM over the years that some privates prefer redshirted or fall birthday kids because it helps their standardized testing numbers. No idea if that is true.[/quote]
