That's what I call it too, Ginger.

60 Minutes is calling starting kindergarten a year later "kindergarten redshirting."
Most of the kids in Matilda's class are in this group. Well, about half, I'd guess.

That's what it's called - I think the origin is from sports rather than Star Trek.

Anyone here fill prescriptions at Rite Aid?
Wow, your use of other prescriptions services is way beyond whatever I've used. I'm mostly like "look at bottle, realize I only have a couple left, call for an automated refill". Or occasionally "realize I have none left, stop at pharmacy and say I'll wait". Though Walgreen's was pretty good the other week when I accidentally threw out the bottle and THEN realized I needed a refill-just left a VM and they filled it.

NYC public schools are incredibly strict about redshirting. If you try to enroll your kid a year late for kindergarten they will be placed in first grade.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I assumed it was from sports, but I'd missed its application to kindergarten.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I assume they look seriously at birthdates and cutoff dates and allow leeway for close to the mark kids?

Oh, so cool! When I go to Spain next week, my niece has arranged a day trip to the oldest working lighthouse in the World.
Do I have an awesome niece, or what?

Very common with boys, and in areas where sports requiring bigness are important (like the SEC.)
Both my kids are on the young end for their grades - in GA Casper's birthday was 3 days before the cutoff - so I have a lot of worry about age inflation in elementary school.
