[quote=Anonymous]In my daughter's Kindergarten class, I know of one boy who was redshirted. He's much bigger than all the other kids but I have no way of knowing the parents' reason for red-shirting. Maybe he wasn't behaviorally ready for Kindergarten initially. I also know of someone in my daughter's class when she was in pre-K who was red-shirted. She has a December birthday so turned 5 during her pre-k year. He turned 6 at the beginning of the pre-K year and was already reading/writing very well. I am completely baffled as to why his parents chose to hold him back instead of sending him to Kindergarten since his behavior was fine and he was academically very successful at a young age.
