is there a difference between a reclassified and a hold back? Chaminade has at least one hold back should have been class of 2016
Usually reclassified is when they change grades after starting school (the "re-" part) and hold backs are when they don't start kindergarten according to their age (hold back from starting school).
How do you characterize a kid who was left back in grade school for academic or social maturation issues years before they or their parents ever considered youth lacrosse. Should such kids be stigmatized if they excel in 7th, 8th grades because they are older? I think not.
I don't believe parents on LI have been holding their kids back in kindergarten in the hopes that the kid plays lacrosse later on in the and that they get a leg up on the competition.
