[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]+1,000. Either the kindergarten teachers in Virginia are totally incompetent because they can't teach an "immature" child of kindergarten age, or the entire education system has gone off the deep end because they have created a kindergarten curriculum that is fundamentally impossible for 5% - 25% of children (those who are redshirted) to participate in. Or else, parents are gaming the system and the teachers are complicit because they either don't feel like taking on the entitled parents or because they are lazy and don't want to have to create a differentiated learning environment that meets the needs of all 5 year olds.

Which is it?

[b]One[/b] of the children I taught and recommended repeat K was just fine academically.  But, his interests were those of younger children.  He did not fit in socially and he was close to the cutoff age.[/quote]

Well, in that case, I am going to be in favor of redshirting all kids! Or all boys! Or whatever your lone example proved. [/quote]
