[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sooooo many 8 yr old in first grade. :roll: [/quote] Actually very few, which is why when people encounter an 8 yr old in first (which means they have a winter or spring birthday and were redshirted), they notice it. Kids with August and September birthdays who are redshirted generally fly below the radar. People get way more annoyed with the spring redshirts than the late summer ones.[/quote] September kids are not held back depending on the school system. Some are 9/1, 9/30 cut offs. A 9/1 cut off is not held back. We pushed our fall kid forward. No kids wants to be in HS for a full year of being 18.[/quote] My child who was sent on time was 18 for the entire year. Are all anti-redshirters crazy or just the ones that post on DCUM?[/quote]
