[quote=Anonymous]I did not realize that the public school, i.e., DCPS, allowed parents to pick and choose what grade their kids will be in. Otherwise, all the parents of 34 month olds who miss the cut off would be starting their babies in formal all-day school "early," in order to realize the free childcare. Or, parents could apply for preK 4 and K at the same time for an OOB school, the hedge their bets. Or, parents of really athletic 8th graders could hold their sons back themselves, independent of academics, to game the playing time situation and be the biggest guy on the freshman team. Are you really sure, OP, that DCPS won't just place your child in the appropriate grade? [/quote]
