[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We also just lost a PK4 spot because the school told me there's a shadow waiting list of kids who are going to repeat the grade. :([/quote] This sounds like a weird workaround to red shirt.[/quote] DCPS doesn’t allow redshirting. I would be really surprised if the district is giving an extra year of ECE to kids for no reason. We tried to have my son skipped up and they wouldn’t allow it. [/quote] This really varies by school. My oldest was offered a chance to skip ahead (we turned it down) and both of my kids (still in elementary) have peers with summer birthdays who repeated PK4.[/quote] DCPS has really cracked down on redshirting in the last 2-3 years. There was a very long thread about this last year after some Lafayette parents were unable to convince the school/DCPS to redshirt their kids.[/quote]
