[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD's birthday is 2 days before the cutoff. She has been the youngest in her class since kindergarten. She's on the smaller side but has done remarkably well academically and though she may be a bit behind her peers socially, she's still been able to make an keep friends and doesn't feel left out due to her size or age. Just my perspective. Good luck![/quote] My kid is four days before the cutoff. She has always been the youngest in her class, but she does fine socially and academically. I would put your kid in the correct class; if there are still concerns about kindergarten-readiness next spring, you can deal with them then. [/quote] +2. My kid's bday is within a week of the cut-off, so it seemed crazy to be starting a 2yo in PK3. Four years later, and she's done fine. She's on par with most other kids in her grade. There's one classmate that is waaay ahead socially and academically, but there's always going to be kids ahead of yours; that's okay with me, so long as I feel she's making a reasonable effort and is having a good experience overall in school. Also, that classmate is even younger![/quote]
