Title: cut off dates for preschool Post by: risaacs on May 02, 2010, 08:10:44 AM our school is considering moving the cut off date from Sept to Dec 31 meaning that the children coming into three year old nursery would have to be 3 by Dec 31 instead of Sept 1
any thoughts how this will effect the classroom/ educational goals/ Title: Re: cut off dates for preschool Post by: yaichenbaum on May 03, 2010, 12:07:24 PM My concernis how would this affect the next year(s) in kindergarten or pre1A?
Some children are not developmentally ready for kriah and/or reading when instruction is started in school. This can result in grade retention or an artificially imposed learning disability. If the child would have been a year behind, the child would have be developmentally ready. Will changing your cut-off date increase the number of children who really are not ready?
