Which is why most people don't do it.  Its only privates around here and some higher SES publics.[/quote]

And I always wonder about redshirting complaints from people who send their children to a private school. This is a school that you choose to pay a lot of money to, so that your child can go there! If you're so upset about its redshirting policies, why are you doing that?[/quote]

I think parents who are new to the environment don't realize it's the trend.

Additionally, for me a lot of my frustration is based on Kindergarten now being inappropriate for the age of children who are meant to attend. We're not graduating high school seniors who are more educated. In fact, our colleges are saying they are having to provide more and more remedial classes. So what's the point of making the early grades age inappropriate if there is no long term benefit? If HS had become the new BA/BS, then I could perhaps understand. But it hasn't. It's gone the other direction.[/quote]

There are more remedial classes because more people are attending college. Those people probably wouldn't have gone to college in the past.[/quote]
