[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he has a summer birthday and is younger than most of the classmates, I would repeat Kindergarten - if the school will even allow you to. My grandson has similar issues and finally in 6th grade they found a private school that only takes kids like this. But it's expensive, 30K, with the state covering about 10K. Luckily they can afford it. Their hope is after HS he can get some type of job that is hands on and not focused on reading, writing and sitting at a desk. Like a ski instructor or river guide.[/quote] Don't do this. It doesn't fix anything. Get him tutoring, work with him at home, increase the private speech therapy (assuming you are in it), work on handwriting. Repeating K is not going to fix things if he isn't getting what he needs from the curriculum in the first place.[/quote]
