[quote=Anonymous]I recently heard (totally second-hand) of a sibling at a big 3 type school who wasn't admitted for Pre K. The family was told to reapply next year and maybe the kid would be a better fit. I had heard of redshirting Spring birthday (may/June) and think it is a bit ridiculous, but I'm shocked to hear that a school would consider a December birthday hold-back. At that point wouldn't the school just say the kid isnt' a good fit rather than shove him in to a class full of kids almost all a year younger or more? Or is this just the school's polite way to let the family down easy and send a subtle message that the school isn't the right fit. [/quote]
