Is my 3 year old suppose to be in head start or pre k this sept?

Question

She turn 4 on nov 27th. Would she be a year behind because of her b day?

Answer 1

Not "supposed" to. Are you doing homeschooling? She can go, but since it is already Sep, it might be too late. Either way, she will be ok.

Answer 2

Yes. She will be a year behind. You have to be 4 no later then September 1st to be in Pre-K.  

Answer 3

In my area, the cut-off date is Sept. 1st.  You'd have to check with your school district.  I believe 3-year olds can be in Head Start though.  But as for Pre-K, your daughter would probably have to wait until next year as that would be for 4-year olds.  Your daughter would just be one of the oldest in her class.

Answer 4

I would say head start .

Answer 5

ur child has to be 4 before or on sept 1st to be eligible for prek

Answer 6

3 year olds can go to head start.  Both my kids did from age 3 to 4 then into Pre-K  

Answer 7

yes she will be a yr behind cause her b day is end of september so she can go to head start

Answer 8

Gosh, 3 seems really young to go to school. Probably PreK next year?

I started nursery school (in the 60s) when I was 3. I can actually remember it and really liked it! It was 'in style' then, Dr. Spock and all?

I started Kindergarten when I was 4, but turned 5 less than a month later. I was usually the youngest in any class that I was in throughout school. I started college when I was 17, but turned 18 less than a month later.

Enjoy your 'baby' while you can....as I'm sure you know, they grow up so fast! Teach your child at home this year and have fun!
