[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a November kid who missed the cutoff last year and did a year of private K. I am still sending her to public K this fall and not 1st specifically because of people who hold back May birthdays, meaning my kid would be in classes with kids 18 months older than her. August/September birthdays: consider it. Any other month and your kid is neurotypical: get your sh*t together and go to school. [/quote] Where do you live that a November kid would ever even have the option to go to k at age 4? Most places have a sept cut off so your November birthday kid would always be one of the oldest in their class but wouldn’t have the option to start k til age 5/turning 6 in November. November birthday (and October, December, January through May kids) shouldn’t even have to think about redshirting at all. It should only come up if a kid has a June-sept birthday.[/quote]
