[quote=Anonymous]We held our June birthday DS back, in a private JK program, and moved him to public K at 6 (with an IEP). He started in FFX Child Find at age 3 b/c of significant speech delays. At age 5, b/c he was public school age, the level of public services available drops significantly if you are in private, so we just did private services (OT, speech) for a year. This plan worked out really well for our kid. He just finished 1st grade (still with an IEP), and is at grade level for all academics and now loves school and has a steadly declining need for any special ed services. We expect that by grade 3 he will no longer ned an IEP. So, for us, holding our DS back worked really well. He just wasn't ready for K at 5. But this is a really kid-specific decision.[/quote]
