[quote=Anonymous]Thanks!  OP, here.  He's in private school.  He's has the Fountas and Pinnell done and a Reading Assessment test done.  They said that he tests just about average for his age, possibly a little bit below.  The private school truly believes that MCPS won't test him b/c he's not significantly delayed, in any way.  He was always our easy child in the sense that there was never anything wrong!  Our older son was always the one with issues.  I've explored having him privately tested, as my older son just was - getting the results tomorrow, but everyone says it's a big waste of time and money b/c of his young age. I just don't want to hold him back if he has learning issues or adhd b/c we'll be in the SAME boat next year and he'll have stayed back from his amazing group of friends.  My older son doesn't make friends like he does, so this is really augmented.

To the poster who held her daughter back, did your daughter feel badly b/c all of her friends went up to first grade?  Did it affect her socially at all?[/quote]
