[quote=Anonymous]We wound up sending a kid to K who had non-academic issues, with the idea that, if things went sidewise, we'd have him repeat the year. He did pretty well in Kindergarten. Some of the behavior problems were reduced, so we just kept him on his current path. In his case, I think having him repeat pre-K or K would have made him worse, because he's now in a very high percentile for his current grade level, and he'd be completely insufferable if he was one year back. On the other hand, his best female friend had similar issues, went to school on time, and it didn't work out as well. Lots of similarities behaviorally, but not as strong academically. Repeating preK would have put her on a better path. Or maybe it wouldn't. Future uncertain, try again later. [/quote]
