[quote=Anonymous]Our kids' private school has a policy that requires kids to be a certain minimum age for each grade, but no stated maximum, thus providing for the ability of the school and parents to decide what the appropriate placement is for each child.  For those asking why redshirted kids aren't going along with school policy, it is, at least at our school, the policy to allow for placements other than in the most advanced grade you could apply for at your age.  Perhaps those who are so concerned about their kids being in class with older student should have considered this before sending their kids to the school.  The schools and parents of older kids aren't playing any tricks, and younger kids and their parents aren't victims here.  If your kid was accepted and you didn't have the good sense to look into the age ranges by talking to other parents or the administration, it's your own responsibility and fault.  Really, you're a parent.  So parent.  If it's a big deal to you, do your research.  This had been a topic of conversation for years.  No excuses for those who claim shock to find older kids in their children's classes.  [/quote]
