[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former first grade and K teacher here: Many would be surprised to know that there are kids who start in the lower tier and rise to the top around January. Preschool is far too early to decide to "skip" your child.[/quote] Yes. There are many if us that don't send kids to academic preschools, Kumon, do worksheets, stress reading--bug have very bright kids. Firstborn did not read going into K and by end of the year was at a 2nd/3rd grade level. He is now in GT reading. There were many kids that started K where your daughter is--some did not stay on same trajectory. Those that did had their needs met.[/quote]
