[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So he’s already 5 now and turning 6 this May? Send him — a kid turning 7 in kindergarten is ridiculous. K success is about learning how to learn, and it sounds like he’s got that. His social skills are on point, he’s got solid pre-literacy skills, and he’s able to follow directions and get/stay with the day’s program of activities. He’s ready for a new challenge, and will be bored out of his mind with another year of preschool. Keeping him back when he’s already been kept back (shouldn’t he have started K this past September, at age 5.5?) is not a kindness. - Parent of May birthday boy, middling height and weight, started K at 5; now varsity athlete, excellent student, great friend [/quote] No my son is 4 and will turn 5 this May. If we hold him back, he would turn 7 his kinder year. Otherwise he will turn 6 the last month of school. [/quote]
