[quote=Anonymous]OP, I haven’t read all the replies but I am sure they are full of people telling you that you shouldn’t do this and should “give the gift of time.” That’s not what you asked. Virginia law requires a kid be 5 by September 30 to enroll in kindergarten. There is no such cutoff for first grade. You can enroll your kid in a private kindergarten or final year of Montessori and then have them evaluated the spring or summer before the next school year. If the child isready, the school will allow your child to enter 1st. I am so glad we did this for my high schooler who missed the cutoff by a few days. She would have been bored academically and socially had she been in the younger grade.[/quote]
