[quote=Anonymous]Articles differ a bit in value from actual research papers such as that discussed in recent posts above. The research paper above does a pretty complete job of discussing other research that's out there. The benefits, if any, as that depends on study, appear concentrated in the early years, then vanish. This is likely because the redshirted folks are predominately from higher SES households, exactly the households that use preschool and PK programs. As the effect of those programs on early performance fades over time. Lower SES families, as has been discussed here, can't afford to keep the kids out of school, so they go according to standard age of entry. This assumes we are not counting football success in high school as a relevant performance matter. Some would disagree. [/quote]
