[quote=Anonymous]OP, I suggest that you lottery for PK4. I think that's the only thing the system will let you do. If your kid has been in a 3-year-old preschool program this year, she will likely do well in a PK4 class. If, at the middle/end of her PK4 year, you still have concerns about maturity and kindergarten readiness, talk to the leadership of the school and try to work out a plan for her to repeat PK4. This has happened at our charter. However, if she is meeting milestones (social, educational, class participation, etc), your preference may not be the final word on the issue. The school would need to agree that repeating the year is in everyone's best interest. As an aside, absent other issues, your kid's size is not a good reason to redshirt. There are bigger and smaller kids at every grade in every school. [/quote]
