[quote=Anonymous]Gilman, like all privates, accepts a largish number of students as transfers into 9th grade. These students complete 8th grade somewhere else, and start 9th grade the following fall at Gilman. They don’t repeat 8th grade when they enter Gilman. They’re not told to take a gap year. My son went to a small catholic school and was the usual age for his grade, and then transferred into Gilman at 6th grade. That’s another expansion year, but smaller than 9th grade. Transfers into Gilman would be hard to do if everyone there was one year older than the transferring student. [/quote]
