Yea, but why?
It just turns into a never ending cycle.
If the summer kids are allowed in , why not the spring kids?
Why not the winter kids?
The pre-k summer kids are holdbacks.

Why? Because its a compromise and that is how you get things done. Letting the public school kid that was born on 8/20/2008 but wasn't ready for first grade because of learning or other developmental reasons play with his 8th grade classmates might be enough to get this actually done. Why not all of the other seasons you mentioned? Because 6/1 would be a step in the right direction, way better than the system now and would have a much better chance of being implemented than 9/1.

You can call them holdbacks if that makes you feel better. My question to you is, would you want things to stay the way they are now or have a 6/1 cutoff?
