[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A private school that I am considering for my child has a rule that the child must turn 5 before September 1 (typical) but that a child cannot have turned 6 before July 1st of the year they start K. That way there is only a max of 14 months between the youngest and the oldest. I like this. [/quote] This makes a lot of sense to me. It provides a little wiggle room for parents to make judgments about kids who are right on the border, but prevents things from getting out of hand by parents holding back kids who are nowhere near the cutoff and wouldn't be the very youngest even if they started on time, and conversely would be substantially older than young kids started on time.[/quote]
