I grew up in Iowa, and never went to preshchool. I turned out fine, was in the talented and gifted program and they wanted to skip me 2 grades when i was in 4th grade. I pretty much got all straight A's until I decided to quit trying, and settled for just getting by in high school. My son is now 4 years old, and I didn't know how far in advance you had to register for pre-kindergarten here in Georgia, and I missed the deadline by about 6 months. Is it required for georgia kids to go through preschool, or will he still be able to go to kindergarten next year? He's my first, and I come from a small town where you go 2 weeks before classes start to register, so I was not aware of the huge difference in time between registration, and actually starting the classes.
