Our school is one of only a handful that has a transitional first grade. I've been researching it online and for every positive study I see, I see at least one negative. I hope he gets into the multi-age program. Same teacher and at least half the same classmates for two years.<BR/><BR/><B>sue</B>, it is amazing. I dug out a book I bought in 1998 called Raising Your Spirited Child. I bought it for insight into Son #1, who scored borderline on the Spirited assessment (more anecdotal than scientific). Flash forward almost ten years: Son #1 is worlds different in temperament now than when he was three. I was surprised to see that Son #3 actually scored lower (slightly). In fact the only person in our 5-member immediately family who ranked "Spirited" was ME! So much for that book!
