[quote=Anonymous]There is a regional component to the practice. I know places in the Mid-West were parents hold off to send their kids to K until they are 6. I can think of four families off the top of my head living in different parts of the Mid-West that waited because that is the norm there. I know people at private school who said that their school suggested they wait until 6. I also know people who sent their kids born in October to private school to start K at 5 because they didn't want to wait a year to start. I don't think that there is a hard and fast rule, there are always exceptions. Anecdotes are not data but data points. Know your kid and where you live and do what works for your kid.[/quote]
