[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD started started K at 4. Her Bday is at the end of August, this decision will follow you for years to come. She started 4th grade 8yo, and I have a niece in NY that started 4th grade at 10yo who has the advantage? Not my daughter. Now we did not make a choice she is where she is supposed to be, but we wrestle with holding her back every year, we should have done it in K, we should have done it in 1st, now in 4th she would be devastated. She can do the work just fine but sometimes when she acts her age, she can be ostracized. I wish we started her later and I bet her current teacher does as well. [/quote] Interesting because some districts in NY still have the December 31st cutoff, so typically their students are younger (and close-in NJ has October 1st or 31st cut-off, so still younger than this area).
