Do they consider summer growth at all?
This wasn't directed to me, but I guess not in our district either b/c dd10 will be placed in a 6th grade math class based on tests that were given btwn the end of 4th grade and about April of 5th grade.
My kids both start 8/19, which is a Friday. Their schools start for all students on 8/22, Monday, but they have the youngest grade in each school start the Friday before to have a chance to learn the routines w/out everyone else there. They'll be 6th and 9th graders, so middle and high school.
