[quote=Anonymous]I know a family who had their daughter repeat 8th grade, not b/c she was failing but just because she was on the young side (Oct Bday) and also physically very small. She changed schools after 8th at school 1, and "repeated" 8th at school 2, where she is doing well and has been much happier. My own DD has a late June bday and is I sometimes wonder if it would have been better for her if I had waited a year for K. She is one of the youngest in her class and also physically smaller than most of the other kids. But she does well academically, and I think would be insanely bored if she repeated a year.[/quote]
