[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was at an open house for a "top 3" private and the AD specifically stated that those born in June, July or August will probably not be accepted into their pre k prgm - thus forcing a red shirt...[/quote] Thank you, people never believe that AD state this. My guess is that they specifically meant boys and that girls are often accepted but they could mean both. It seems that this is mainly a boy issue. Prior to this summer birthday redshirting trend, were late summer boys failing out of high schools? Were boys in general not as academically advanced as girls in HS? Was the SAT rates for boys that much lower? [/quote]
