[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a fall bday kid and did not even try EEK. K-3 was frustrating. Started w the magnets in 4th and its been great. Heading to MS now and I am beyond glad with our decision. I would rather some boredom here and there versus having him have to grow up too quickly.[/quote] How are they growing up too quickly? So, basically you dumb down your kid to meet your needs.[/quote] Haven't dumbed anything down. He is in the grade he should be based on a cutoff. Single best decision we have made in his schooling hands down (for us). Clearly when you are a grade ahead you grow up more quickly. Kids get family life class in 5th grade for one, 5th graders are getting cell phones and on all sort of social media. And obviously they head off to college earlier. He gets an extra year to be a kid. [/quote]
