I need help finding articles, statistics or any information on the
affects of enrolling children in school a year early. I am having
trouble finding anything on the internet or in our online magazine
databases. One of our parents is wanting to start her four-year-old
daughter in kindergarten this year. (The child's birthday does fall
early in the school year.) The girl was tested at a private school and
they said she has the skills to begin their kindergarten. Next year she
will be ready to enter first grade at our public school and she will
only be five. Does anyone know where I could find some information on
this topic?
Thanks!
