[quote=Anonymous]If you’re planning to go to private school for a while, you are going to follow their rules. Someone mentioned that these school have “unofficial” cut offs and I completely agree with that. Redshirting is very common in private schools, at least the ones I’m familiar with. Not just with boys but also girls. My own experience is that it’s either accept it or leave. And it is very unfortunate that this is such a big thing. If your child was a summer kid, their “immaturity” will be blamed on their birth month. But if your kid happens to be born between October-May, then their “immaturity” is considered age appropriate, because they’re just a kid, and they’re too old to be redshirted anyway. So they get a pass. [/quote]
