[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That was an interesting story the first two or three times I read it. BTW, in Virginia, there is no early entrance test, if you miss the cutoff, that's it. But anyone can decide to hold back their child for any reason, up until they turn 7. It's possible to have some very old-for-grade 6 year olds in a K class, along with just-turned-5 year olds.[/quote] I'm pretty sure there are restrictions on redshirting. It's only the kids who were born right before the cut-off who can be redshirted. For instance, areas where there's a fall cut-off, only summer birthdays are allowed to be redshirted, and in areas with winter cut-offs, only fall birthdays are allowed to be redshirted. But I don't know anyone with a Spring birthday who was redshirted. The rules in Virginia are stupid IMO.[/quote]
