Sadly, I think this poster is correct. Navigating this post-Covid environment (when we get there) is going to be challenging for athletes who want to continue to play in their true grade.

If you are public you can’t just snap your fingers and your kid is held back. There are significant hoops to qualify for a repeat year. Taxpayers don’t want to pay twice. If you are in private school unlikely you are going to be held back (parent should get their money back if that was the case) The only viable scenario is a kid going from public to private ( will be a very small number that do that). Bottom line not much movement but less smart kids.
