[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - my first grader doesn't know how to read, yours is fine.[/quote] OP here... thanks for this. Our DD is our only and I don’t have experience with kids of this age so I never quite know what’s the true expectations for kids this age. Not a humble brag, but I was reading at 4, so I know it’s possible (not expected for kinder back in the 80s) but was hoping it wasn’t typical to read before kindergarten now. Her Pre-K teacher (and director) has said to send her and that she doesn’t think another year of pre-K would be a benefit. I told her to be bluntly honest and she was and I trust her implicitly. But so many people I know automatically redshirt so it just gives me pause. Not only will she be the youngest by the state cutoff but people abuse the redshirting so that she might be 18 months younger than another kid ...[/quote]
