[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do pre-first register for activities that are grade based?  For example, my kids camp asks what grade he will be in next fall in order to place him in the correct group.  Choices are 1st or 2nd....[/quote]

If you lived in Baltimore, you would just say pre-first.  It really isn't complicated.[/quote]

Do the public schools also have pre-first?[/quote]

Yes - I went to public school in New Hampshire and went to pre-first.

The public schools in Baltimore and Baltimore County do not have pre-first.   The Park School of Baltimore is the one major private school that also does not have pre-first and keeps their students within a relatively tight age-span in each grade.  One of my DC's was held back at another private with an August birthday.  He transferred to Park is among the oldest 5 kids in his class.  (For that DC holding him back was absolutely the right decision.) [/quote]

True, but it wasn't uncommon at our Baltimore public elementary for kids  to do k and prefirst at their preschool and then go public in 1st and switch to p I ate for middle or high school.[/quote]
