[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey OP, one of my kindergarten students just celebrated his 7th birthday at school.  Everyone was totally cool with it!  Just wanted to keep you updated--so far all the children are still alive.  We'll see what happens tomorrow.[/quote]

And how many kids in your class started at age 4 turning 5 in September per the actual cutoff?[/quote]

Cutoff is Sept. 1 in my district.  No 4-year-olds this year, and two kids turned 6 in September.  [/quote]

Did you send them to first grade after their birthdays? I read on DCUM that kindergarten is for five-year-olds. :) [/quote]

I will say, as the parent of a 5 year old in kindergarten (who is by far the youngest child in the class and was 4 when she started in September), this thread is the first I've heard that kindergarten is not for 5 year olds but is actually for 6 year olds.  Learn something new every day.[/quote]

PP, every child in your child's class who has a birthday between October 1 and the last day of school will be a 6-year-old in kindergarten. This never occurred to you before?[/quote]
