Take a deep breath, and remember that the school evaluated where he should be placed pretty thoroughly, and they took this into account. They are of the opinion that he will be fine, and they already know the kids that he will be in first grade with. think about it - almost all first grade classrooms contain some kids who are nearly a year apart anyway, because of the way the age cutoffs work. A lot of them have nearly a two-year spread due to "red-shirting". Will it be a perfect fit? Probably not. Is this because he is a year younger than most? Probably not.
