Let Children Start School When They're Ready!

Parsons, Cynthia

Phi Delta Kappan, v67 n1 p61-62 Sep 1985

Any given child should attend school full time when three parties agree that the time is right: the child, his or her parents, and the school officials. Arbitrary starting dates based on calendar age are outmoded and educationally unsound. (PGD)
