[quote=Anonymous]I'm a Janney mom with a boy in K this year - he is a November birthday so I am lucky that he will be older in his class and I didn't have to think about weather redshirt him or not. In his class there are 3 redshirted boys with Aug birthdays who started K at 6. They are at this point in time some of the best readers in the class and get pulled out for extra time to stimulate them. My son is obviously not that much younger than them and is definitely on the "average" side when it comes to reading. He isn't that into it. There is a lot of range in the class in both age and reading, but one doesn't necessarily correspond to the other. Did you enter the PK lottery? Are you at another school now that you would stay at? I would talk to your current school and see what they think. You could also talk to the Janney principal. She is leaving, yes, but she might have some good advice for you. Good luck ![/quote]
