[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have experience with starting an August child on time to give it a shot, then repeating K?[/quote] I posted earlier in the thread that we did this. The extra year helped a lot with social/emotional development and some mild anxiety. DD is doing great and I have no regrets.[/quote] I forgot to mention that we didn't start K expecting to repeat. It never occurred to me until the school brought it up and we conferred with the principal and several teachers. I'd have considered redshirting had I really thought DD wasn't ready.[/quote] DP. We started our September birthday DS on time. Kindergarten didn't go well, but he was ahead academically. I asked about repeating kindergarten and they said absolutely not. [/quote] How did your DS do in first grade (and beyond)?[/quote]
