[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am redshirting my 5 year old girl born 5 days before the cutoff. We decided to keep her in preschool with her friends whom were redshirted or had October- Dec birthdays. We decided when she was 4/4.5. I think 2 is WAY too early. At this age the difference is huge. He will be in class next year with kids that are currently 1. Wait oP[/quote] This makes no sense as the friends your kid has in preschool are going to be different than elementary school and beyond.[/quote] No, at our preschool it’s different. They divide the students in 6 months chunks except for the last year. So the last year of preschool has kids that were redshirted (6 out of 13 in my DD’s previous class) and kids with birthdays between September and March (not redshirted). Next year she will go to K right before (or right after) she turns 6. It makes perfect sense[/quote]
