The Kourtney Kardashian (& Scott Disick if necessary) Thread

Welp, it's right from the government's "mouth" - 5 on or before Sept 1. Not sure where you live?

Calabasas where they live, schools start Aug 20, San Diego schools start on Sept 3, Aug 12 in L.A. and it's Aug 18th in San Fran.

I think it's pretty much normal across most states for the 5 by Sept rule.
In my area it's more common to "red shirt" kids, boys especially, a year until they're 6. It's hard to sit in full day Kinder for a lot of kids at 5.

I agree with that last sentence because Kindergarten isn't like when we were little. I remember nap time. Now K is like college for toddlers.

Yes! More stringent curriculums, no nap time, full day, etc. . .

I was just responding off the definitive "most". I know of a few other states that will accept kids that are 4 and months.

A few probably I said most, not all.
I'm interested in this so I randomly googled other states since I already know that TX, CA and OK are 5 on/before Sept 1.
Most are on/before beginning of Sept:

Anyways. . . . it was asked, so I looked it up.

I hope they send him to school when it's time...someone in that family has to be smart lol

He's in school. My friend's kids go to the same school he's enrolled in.

 

[AChanelADay]

well I mean kids in foreign countries start school early and have full curriculums as well

 

[Swanky]

Ok.

I think PMK chews up and spits out the men in that family. It's good that Mason will have another male in the family his age. I bet the devils handmaiden is already plotting Penelope and North's future.

Agree. The boys will have a chance in life. KJenner won't go after them.

She might try, I think Kourt would put the kabosh on it though.

CA changed to 5 by Sep 1st rule just a couple of years back. 6 years back my DD started Kindergarten at 4 yrs 10 months. 4 years back a few of my friends kids started K at 4 yrs 9 months. I think this is a recent change.

It must have changed recently. My son who is 9 years old now started Kinder before he turned 5 on Sept 16th. We live in California. My nephews are from October and they were not 5 yet either when they started Kinder 4 years ago.

 

[louvigilante]

It changed in the last few years. I think 2-3 years ago.

Any news on the name?

Any news on the name?

This may be speculation, but I read that it's going to honor both of their families- drawing names from Scott's dad and Kourtney's dad. I think it would be really special if they ended up doing that.

Does Kindergarten have a different meaning in the states? I thought you go to KD when you're 4 for two years, then start first grade at age 6, so then that lines up to being age 12-13 for middle school and starting high school at 14.

Depends on the birthdate cutoffs by state someone linked above. I think most states have K at late 4s & 5, then first grade is late 5s & 6 and so on.

in NJ, age 5 by sept. 30th......I don't think they take 4's into K....4-5 is Pre-K.
