[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP @ 11:54, just to be clear, were those schools telling you they end up with kids on the older end of the usual range for K (5-6 years old)? Or were they saying they seek older kids that have been held back beyond the usual age range?[/quote] We were asking about admissions for our child, not really questioning about the class makeup in the end (which of course depends on who decides to attend after being admitted). As other posters have said, it's better to focus on your own and not worry about others. But we wanted to be realistic about chances at admission. Maret was the one we felt a "young" child would be disadvantaged in the process, maybe Sidwell but not as much. All of the admissions people at each school were very nice and open and trying to be helpful for us. I'd encourage everyone to have these same conversations with them directly. Hard to say whether there is a wrong or right answer. [/quote]
