[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Redshirting and/or repeating a grade (hold back) before entering private school has been around for more than 50 years. No need for 50 pages. This phenomenon is rather customary. We don't call it redshirting.[/quote] So you are saying that private school academics is over inflated. We should compare all private schools education to public schools education from one grade earlier. I guess this makes magnet programs, and elite publics look that much better. I'm sure there is data on average age of public student vs private just like there was a recent report on the average age of public students has increased they believe it is due to redshirting and timing their pregnancy near the cut-off (which seams far fetched to me).[/quote]
