[quote=Anonymous]There is no one reason for the wide age differentials in private school grades. Some are due to maturity. Some are due to academics. I know someone who kept her son back an entire year before kindergarten because he was tiny. Now he is in high school and he is 18 feet taller than everyone around him. Go figure. Another parent I know held their kid back bc she didn't want him driving with his friends when he was 9-10 months younger than all of them. I'm not sure how she plans to prevent him from having friends who are older than he is, regardless of his grade. But not everyone does it just to be the biggest, strongest or most attractive to college sports recruiters. [/quote]
