State statutes do not clearly define this situation. The statutes define eligibility for 4K and 5K in terms of age. However, the statutes also define a district's ability to determine grade level placement. Districts offering 4-year-old kindergarten should establish a policy to address this situation. If the district allows delayed entrance based on parent request, the district should assure that the parent consider the issues about delaying entrance discussed in question 6.  more
