[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]when you put a normal old kid in with my young kid it changes the classroom dynamic[/quote] Actually, in K it establishes a classroom dynamic and one that isn't based on a 12 month cohort (much less a 12 month cohort that runs from Sept to Sept). Different classrooms (as well as other kid-oriented contexts like scouting and sports) have different age ranges, depending on pedagogy, staffing, demands/abilities, etc. 12 months is no less arbitrary than 16 months. If you don't trust a school to make the call on this kind of issue (where they know a lot better what they're dealing with than you do), then you should look for another school. [/quote]
