[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ONLY reason red shirting is on my mind for my Aug boy is that so many people are doing this and he will be 15 months + younger than other kids. I HATE this. I won't do it for this reason but it's on my mind - if people kept to the cut off dates except for true special cases we would all be better off. My sons preschool teacher used to teach K in NY. She said they met with all kids whose parents wanted to keep them back. If they passed the screening and the teachers felt they were ready then they went. Wish they did that here.[/quote] Calm down. There is no "epidemic." Your child will be in a class with plenty of other kids born in the summer and fall, plus a few who are 10-12 months older. The presence of a few redshirted kids won't hurt yours. [/quote]
