[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which school systems will allow December birthday children, who entered public kindergarten at age 4 (out-of-state) to continue in kindergarten as transfers or to enter first grade the following year after completing the out-of-state kindergarten? TIA![/quote] Horrible idea in FCPS. If you are coming in from fly over country somewhere, you need to understand the concept of redshirting. It is very prevalent in the DC area. No one sends kids after a July birthday with their 'correct' school year. They wait 1 full year and start the child as he/she is turning 6 vs turning 5. This has all sorts of benefits socially, academically, and in sports. [/quote]
