My kids are attending schoold year that starts in August. Both in Canada and US (she was in K to grade 3 in Canada and grade 4 in US), her school mates are mostly a year older than she is. The cut off age dates is August 31. The school in Canada has accelerated her grade 1 since was advance and very gifted. They also offer to accelerate her grade 3 which we had say no (she was really enjoying school and her classmates).skye wrote:You are confusing the name of the grade with what it means in different school systems. One school's grade 2 might be another school's Year 3 or grade 4. It doesn't mean much unless you know the age group and what work they are doing, it does not mean they are being "downgraded". To give you an example, my child moved from Year 3 to grade 2 and then Year 4 in different countries and systems. In each case he was with same age children and doing age-appropriate work.
Glad to hear that you and your child is happy with the school. I have emailed them twice now and receive no reply, yikes!igrok24 wrote:Hi! My son is 9 ( will be 10 in july). He is in grade 4 in ERIS. In Canada he would be also in Gr 4 by now. BTW the school is good:)
