Wait, this decision would potentially be for next year? As in not even 2010/2011, but 2011/2012? Am I correct in (skimming) understanding that K next year is pretty much a "done deal", and the question is whether or not to hang out for an extra year?
I'm all for planning ahead, but at age 4....that's a little too far ahead, in my book. I'd wait this one out at this point. You'll be in a much better position to address that possibility in the spring of 2011.
Yes, you are correct. We went there with the mindset of advocating subject acceleration but she got me all confused. If this is so further down the road, we wonder why she raised it in the first place. May be she raised it casually and I am taking it too seriously. Don't get me wrong, we like the teacher a lot, she is great, positive and understands him and thats why it got us worried. She actually was very detailed in explaining his progress but my husband and I have been concerned with this suggestion and hence the post. We just hope that things correct themselves given time.
