[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just remember that if you redshirt, you'll have an 18 year old adult to get through senior year of high school. [/quote] An August birthday who redshirted is 4 weeks older than the September birthdays who went on time! (or in DC, given the deadline is Sept 30, he'd be 8 weeks older than the October birthdays who went on time!) so a redshirted child is 18 years old by August 30, and some of the children in his classroom turn 18 years old on September 8th. No big difference at all in the scheme of things! Of course, there are children born in July/August who were NOT redshirted, who won't turn 18 years of age until AFTER they graduate high school, but a redshirted child won't be the "only" 18 year old as a senior in high school!
