Crabs are cheaters - no two ways about it.


I call BS on the fact that you have any idea what you are talking about. There are no "holdbacks" in 7th grade. There are some kids that went to prefirst but only a few of them were born before the 5/1/2001 cutoff. Obviously you have no idea how this works. Kids aren't being held back until they have completed 8th grade.


So wrong. There are kids that "hold backs" early and during middle school. Hold back refers to any grade repeated a second time - not just 8th grade. Perhaps it is you who thinks you know what is going on when all around you something else is happening. Additionally "just a few" is still a few too many. 5/1 was a generous cut off created for Denver to account for some summer birthdays of true non Pre-1st , non holdback kids.
