DS can wait until 2019 to start or we can have him go to private school kindergarten and start first grade in 2019. In the long run it's a slightly less expensive option, but in the short term it's more money than paying for daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268507 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 13:35:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 2268507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 is 2018, she will turn 6 in October, but here the cut off is July 15th. </p> <p>2020 for DD2, so they will only be 2 years apart which i like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268480 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 13:24:58 +0000 sunny 2268480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sept 2017 right after LO turns 5 yo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268450 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 13:14:49 +0000 winniebee 2268450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2017 (age 5 years, 4 months - May bday)<br /> 2020 (age 5 years, 9 months - Dec bday)</p> <p>The cut off in our state is October 15 so this is how it will be unless we move. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268430 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 13:06:37 +0000 lilteacherbee 2268430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2019, when he's almost 6.

I was complaining about it to the preschool director (about poor planning on our part, having 2 kids in Oct/Nov right after the cutoff so both will require an extra year of daycare/preschool) and she said we are actually very lucky and that kindergarten is not the same as it once was, very tough for young kids and the later they can start the better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268362 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 12:42:57 +0000 mrsjyw 2268362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sept 1 cutoff here, though I can write in for Ds. We will assess when it's closer to that time, but ds1 will either be 4y9 months (2017) or 5y9 (2018) months depending on when we decide to start him in Kindergarten.</p> <p>Ds2 will be 5y2m.

So LO will start at 4 years 11 months if the law stays the same. I think they're talking about moving the cut-off date back to August or even mid-June... Anything less than 5 seems so young! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268299 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 12:10:46 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2268299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbird: no, senior kindergarten and then on to first grade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268297 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 12:09:56 +0000 yellowbird 2268297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: do they go straight to first grade after? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268288 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 12:04:53 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2268288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: @yellowbird: we have full day junior kindergarten in Toronto. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-willdid-your-lo-start-kindergarten#post-2268283 Thu, 20 Aug 2015 12:02:11 +0000 yellowbird 2268283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm hoping dd will start in 2017.
