[quote=Anonymous]To the PP who wonders how the younger kids do in admissions at Gilman, I can tell you there were a fair number of "young fives" with spring and summer birthdays in my son's kindergarten class there. There were also some boys who were six before kindergarten started because their parents opted for an extra year of preschool before starting kindergarten, so if your son doesn't get in this year, that's always an option (and cheaper than pre-first!). To the PP who was upset that her son who is reading at a second grade will likely be recommended for pre-first, as PPs in this thread have already noted, pre-first has little to do with academics and much more to do with maturity, which tends to be very closely aligned with age.
