[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My March son is the YOUNGEST in his private K class in a suburban Virginia class. It blew my mind when the teacher said that at the parent teacher conference. At a middle school teacher, I see the negative side of red shirting. A 15 year old 8th grader isn't hanging out with middle schoolers...they're finding high school kids who have high school opportunities to be involved in. Not all, of course, but many get involved dating high schoolers in 8th grade and it's generally not the most upstanding high schoolers.[/quote] A redshirted kid is 14 in 8th grade. If redshirted in the spring he/she will only be 15 for a month or two. My redshirted girl won’t turn 15 until the beginning of 9th grade[/quote] *born* not *redshirted* ... sorry it’s late and I should probably be sleeping already...[/quote]
