[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fortunately, the entire premise of this post turned out to be false. Redshirting has remained as rare as ever.[/quote] Kindergarten is down almost 20% in FCPS year over year, and that's in a situation where there have probably been a bunch of people moving out to the suburbs from more built-up areas. The other elementary grades are down a little over 7%. We have no idea how many are redshirting, how many are in private/homeschooled and planning going back to public 1st, how many are currently in K and will have their parents fight tooth and nail to repeat the year, and how many are switching out of the system entirely. I could see an additional 10% of the class red-shirted, with those students skewing older than previous redshirts. Or it could be a lot less. Or it could be even more than 10%, and the K class is still winds up much smaller than pre-pandemic because of parents fleeing the system. Anyway, nobody knows.[/quote]
