> a teacher may not have time/resources to give extra content in kindergarten
A few weeks ago, I spoke with the principal at one of the most popular[0] public elementary schools in San Francisco. She told me:
- she's only had a student skip a grade once ever
- no matter how far ahead a child is, a kindergarten teacher will not teach any first grade content
[0] as measured by ratio of applicants to spots
