[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But I think what she’s asking, and what FCPS allows, is starting kindergarten early at a private school and then transferring back to FCPS a few years later. [/quote]

They will be in the grade by their age. Some people do it if their kid is old and do a “private” year of K and then enroll in K in FCPS the next year. [/quote]

No, this is not typical. People who enroll their kid in private kindergarten earlier than FCPS allows, don’t have their kids do kindergarten again the following year in public. Instead, they have their kid enroll in first grade or, more often second grade, in public 1-2 years later. [/quote]

So you’re saying FCPS would allow 1st grade enrollment despite age?[/quote]

Different poster: No. The child would still be age 5 by September 30. That’s kindergarten enrollment. [/quote]

That's not the question.  You can enroll a child after a few years in private after the child has completed a few grades successfully.  [/quote]

Which private school doesn’t follow state age requirements and has several grades in it?

So now you (general) are saying that a kid can do private k-2 and come into FCPS at 3rd grade despite age?[/quote]
