[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my DD's kindergarten class a boy turned 7 in February, and it does not impact the class in any way.  The boy is repeating K and I applaud the family for looking out for their child's best interest long-term.  After all, they could have refused the recommendation and sent him to 1st, but they chose to focus on his needs.  No big deal to his current (and former) classmates.[/quote]

Seriously? So he'll turn 8 in K?[/quote]

No - he just turned 7 in February.  He will turn 8 next February in 1st grade.[/quote]

If the child is struggling that much, I'd be far more concerned about what is going on that [b]they need to be held back that much. [/b] Child need and IEP and parents need to supplement academics at home and get him services.    I know my child will struggle with some concepts and needs more support, so we heavily work with him at home and during the summer.  We can see the different it makes.[/quote]

The child in question was held back once.  For K.  Its hardly a travesty[/quote]
