[quote=Anonymous]My son is in 5th grade and just went to a 12th birthday party. My daughter is in 7th grade and turned 12 in Sept. I think the red shirting is making the curriculum tough for teachers. Some with a 2yr age gap. The more people redshirt, the more people will want to because what once was the youngest in the class by a few days, others months at most and no more than a year max, is now having kids with Sept birthdays with kids 18 months older than them in the same class. I wish schools would put age windows for acceptance. Also, the studies show the youngest kids in the class are usually the smartest. Not the oldest. [/quote]
