Hi my name is Brandie. I am trying to find more parents like myself who has a child with a late birthday. The board of education has changed the deadline to August 31st some years back. I feel the deadline should be pushed back to October 31st. It is a lot of kids that have to wait a whole year for school when they are mentally ready for kindergarten. My sons birthday is September 2nd and he is more then ready for school. If you feel the same please sign the petition. If you know someone going through this please sign we need your help.
