Restart Kindergarten
The Texas Legislature has given parents new rights to make this decision for the upcoming school year. The decision as to whether your child needs to repeat kindergarten or pre-kindergarten in the upcoming school year is your decision to make as a parent.
If, during the previous school year, your kindergarten or pre-kindergarten-age child:
- Did not attend
- Missed many days because of the disrupted school year
- Attended but struggled
You may want to consider whether he or she should restart this upcoming school year.
