[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not just a few days older. A redshired child with a March birthday in a district with a August 31st cut off is 17 Months older than the youngest child in the class. Tell me with a straight face that a low income 4 year old faces no disadvanges being compared to a middle class 6 year old in the same kindergarden class![/quote] Okay, why stop there? If there were no redshirting there could still be a 12 month difference. Why not insist that cohorts have a six month age spread? Or three months? Or one month? What makes 12 months fair and 13 months unfair? I’m really curious as to the thought process here. [/quote]
