[quote=Anonymous]9:19 If the child was going to be redshirted and then attend a play based or Waldorf pre-school for another year to develop social skills, that would be fine to redshirt, however what I've seen in FCPS is these parents hold their kids who are fully ready to go to K, put them in yet another academic type setting for the additional year, start them late with them a full year or two above the current curriculum, and then get upset that the teacher isn't teaching their "gifted" child. There is no reason to hold this child back. In FCPS, there are two recess times and an indoor play time every day plus PE, art, and library. [/quote]
