[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the school getting more money from her? An extra year? I don't believe they look at it that way - either way they'd fill the class, so their total intake is the same either way. They don't have incentive to hold kids back just because. I bet OP's kid is further behind maturity wise than she thinks. Otherwise they'd put the kid in K and keep moving. [/quote]

Of course they do. How do you not get that?[/quote]

Because it's very easy to fill the Pre-K and Kinder classes. They don't need this particular kid to fill either class. You don't now how any of this works.[/quote]
Except there is an incentive and it does happen. [/quote]

For a desperate school, sure. If that describes your school you should probably apply out.[/quote]
OMG, PP must be the director of a school. 
No one believes that schools don’t do this because that would be foolish. [/quote]

Foolish is OP didn't register her kid for PK a this school in the beginning. Why is she now applying to kinder? PK is usually very hard to get into bc it's a smaller class size and it feeds directly into the K, so you're already "in". So many of you have no clue how any of this works. Where is OP now and why is this the first time she's applying to this school? If the PK is this hard up to find kids that tells you something.[/quote]
