[quote=Anonymous]OP you need to ask this on the private school forums. In most private schools kids born in August before 1st grade have just turned 7. There might be some exceptions for girls but all the boys who were born in the summer along with some May (and maybe even an April birthday) will have turned seven before 1st grade starts. What the school is suggesting is extremely common for private schools. So the ages for most private schools are: K: Start at age 6 and stay 6 the entire school year or start at 5 and turn 6 by the end of the school year. (exception might be for a May birthday who will turn 7 or a mature girl) 1: start at age 7 and stay 7 the whole school year or start at 6 and turn 7 during the school year 2nd start at age 8 and stay 8 the whole school year or start at 7 and turn 8 during the school year. So your child in most private schools should be going into 1st next year. [/quote]
