[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of what is allowed and not, you should ask the principal. Unless you already know him/her, do so humbly and with the expectation of a 'no', as I'm sure they're being asked this question all the time, by many, many parents who naturally think their kids are super-special. And it sounds like you'll be transferring schools and that school does not know your son yet, so couldn't make any promises. I highly doubt DCPS will allow you to 'enroll' your child in K, if only for the fact that this be a huge auditing flag. However, it is possible that they will consider a transfer up within the first 3-4 weeks, once they've run all the initial assessments and everyone (parents, teacher, principal) agrees on the course of action. 
I think you'd be in a different situation if you weren't switching schools. In that case, you'd be having that conversation now with the principal of your school and that principal could deliberately plan for a transfer into K. Re-enrollment isn't quite as big a deal.
(On the substance, my son was always among if not the youngest and that was never a problem.)[/quote]

The OP has now stated twice that the principal of the school her child will be attending allows this.  [/quote]
