[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would send him either to the bridge program or private kindergarten and/or first, then switch back to public and repeat the year. If you repeat the year, I personally would tell him that he is so adorable that both schools wanted him with them for a year. [/quote] Your kid might buy this at 5, but then she'll grow up. High school student remember who is retained. I teach high school and it comes up a lot. And they don't buy it's because of adorableness. If you do a bridge program there's not as much stigma as retaining a kid in a grade. Don't do that. There is so much research that the stigma comes back to bite them in the end. [/quote]
