[quote=Anonymous]2nd graders are still in the developmental phase where they mostly play with whoever happens to be nearby. In 3rd grade they start to develop more stable friends groups. That might make it harder for your kid to leave after 3rd if they have a tight friend group in DCPS. But most MCPS schools are pretty big and not particularly insular. I wouldn’t think it would be particularly hard socially to start in 3rd or 4th. With 5th being the last year of elementary school it might be a little harder since just as you’re getting to know the school well your kid will be moving on to MS. [/quote]
