[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, my mid-October birthday girl started early.  Currently in 3rd grade  and everything is going well. Her best friend is over a year older (September birthday - turned 9 at the beginning of 3rd grade, and my child turned 8 a month later). My daughter is on the small side.  She's very bright and at the top of her class academically.  I think she's in the right grade for her and can't imagine her being in 2nd this year instead, but I guess we'll see if there are challenges later.  I was a late-October birthday and started K at age 4 and didn't have problems with it in high school, college, etc., and used that experience in deciding for my daughter.[/quote]

+1, ditto everything above. My mid-October birthday girl started early.  Currently in elementary, and everything is going well (very bright, top of her class academically). She is also on the small side (but would be next year, too; I'm short).  I think she is in the right grade. I was a November birthday and started K at age 4, and it was definitely the right decision for me.

We're in VA so no test-in. She started at private then switched to public. [/quote]
