[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's another redshirting thread, but I wasn't sure if this goes here or there. Anyway ... I don't understand why people won't name names. We have a kid with a very late August birthday, so we called around the privates and spoke to the admissions directors or others in the admissions offices. Here is what they said, not verbatim, but the bottom line after 5 minutes or more on the phone: Maret: we want older kids Sidwell: we're flexible, though usually end up with older kids Concord Hill: happy to take younger kids Sheridan: happy to take younger kids Sheridan does not always take younger kids--they have asked summer kids to apply again the next year from what I have heard. I think that is the general trend everywhere except for maybe GDS. I asked a 1st grade teacher at one of these schools and she said there was one young August bday in the grade--that was it.[/quote]
