[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm forced to hold DD back - her birthday is 10/15 and stupid ass FCPS won't let her test into kindergarten 2 weeks before she turns 5.  Nope, let's waste an entire year and do NOTHING (with regard to her as she has to sit home for a whole year whereas in MOCO she'd be in K).  Even if she reads, writes, adds, subtracts, they DON'T GIVE A F.

FCPS elementary school bureaucrats are the laziest bunch in the DC area I swear.  God forbid they had to actually work a FULL 5-day workweek.  God forbid they actually had to put some kind of effort into testing students to see if they are ready to enter kindergarten a couple weeks before their 5th birthday.[/quote]
It's hard to win both sides of that argument.  I'm sure you could find a private school that would take your 4 yr old snowflake for K. [/quote]

Most private schools go by the same rules as the school district.  We have the same issue, same birthday.  [/quote]
Our Catholic school would take her at 4 with testing and recommendations. [/quote]
