[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quite honestly there are worse problems then having a few kids in the class who are a bit older than the rest (which I agree with another poster - will matter less and less as the kids get older).  Try going to a Title 1 school where the kids come in unprepared or not speaking English and see how your child fares in that classroom. [/quote]

If this problem isn't as big as that problem, then we'll just ignore it and only focus on that problem.  Only talk about one problem at a time.  [/quote]

Well I don't see redshirting as a problem so there's that.....[/quote]

Of course, if this 15 year old is in special education, that is a different story, with possibility different educational trajectory.

Are you fine with an 8th grader driving? If he makes it to graduation, he will be 20 years old. Will you mind this [b]18 year old 10 grader [/b]dating your teen daughter?[/quote]

I grew up in Arlington and attended schools in APS from K-12.  When I was 15 and taking Driver's Ed during my sophomore year of HS, there was a guy who was in EIGHTH GRADE at Swanson MS in the same class as me.  He wasn't in Special Ed or anything although I believe he did a couple runs at what used to be called Argus House and that  caused him to be held back.  Anyway, yeah, that guy did in fact get his license and drove to and from middle school every day afterward.  And dated as many 7th and 8th grade girls as he could get his hands on, ugh.[/quote]
