[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fine. I'll bite. I'm a teacher, I think redshirting is ridiculous. The notion that your kid should be the oldest is absurd. A good teacher is flexible and designs a curriculum that meets the child where he is at. A strong curriculum molds itself to the needs of the children, not the other way around. As a disclaimer, I should add that I teach at a well regarded private school, so I do have the flexibility to do this, but, I feel that private schools are where you see a lot of the redshirting.[/quote] If you teach at a well regarded private, you probably don't have the issue of special needs to consider. Many people with children who have special needs find their child is in need of further therapy before being ready for school.[/quote]
