Book excerpt: The past two decades have seen a rising trend in the minimum entrance age for kindergarten in the United States, motivated by findings from studies finding that older entrants perform better than younger entrants on a wide range of outcomes. Delaying kindergarten entrance, however, imposes additional childcare and time costs on families whose children are forced to stay out of school for another year. This dissertation provides new evidence on the causal effect of delaying kindergarten entrance on children's academic achievement in elementary school. The author finds that, compared to other educational interventions, a one-year delay in kindergarten entrance has a positive and significant effect on children's test scores both when they begin school and at the end of two years in school. Although the initial entrance-age effect is smaller among poor and disabled children compared with that for non-poor and non-disabled children. delaying entrance has a sizable effect on test score gains over time for poor and disabled children but a negligible effect on gains for non-poor and non-disabled children. The author also developed an economic model for parents' kindergarten entrance age decisions and examined the effect of socioeconomic factors on these decisions. Higher childcare prices and maternal wages significantly lower the age at which parents desire to send their child to kindergarten.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the issue of whether or not kindergarten entrance age makes a difference in school success. Some parents delay their child's kindergarten entrance. Students whose kindergarten entrance was delayed are one year or more older than peers in the same classroom, which may give them an advantage (through advanced development) or a disadvantage (through delayed exposure to academics). This study fills a gap in the current literature because it used a longitudinal design and examined the difference in scores over time with the consideration over potential covariates. The specific research questions were: Are there academic advantages in delaying a child's kindergarten entrance as evidenced by academic assessments in third grade, fifth grade, and eighth grade after taking potential covariates into account? Secondly, do students whose kindergarten entrance was delayed, exhibit different behaviors in kindergarten after controlling for potential covariates? This study used the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study (ECLS), Kindergarten (K) Class of 1998-1999 dataset to answer the research questions. The ECLS-K is a large-scale and longitudinal dataset providing nationally representative and generalizable data from approximately 16,000 kindergarten students. Analysis of covariance was used to answer the two research questions. The data analysis to answer the first research question examined the change over time in reading, mathematics, and general knowledge assessments administered in grades kindergarten, first, third, fifth, and eighth. The second research question examined change over time in problematic behaviors as reported by the teacher. The results of this study determined that children whose kindergarten entrance was delayed had an initial advantage in kindergarten in reading, mathematics, general knowledge, and they had fewer problematic behaviors. However, the younger students had a significantly steeper slope of learning. The consideration of covariates did not affect the results. The findings of this study have implications regarding delaying a child's kindergarten entrance, policy decisions, teachers' delivery of instruction, and curricular expectations in early childhood classrooms.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept known as "red-shirting" in sports to provide an athletic advantage by delaying a child's entry into sports is also prevalent among parents who perceive an academic advantage for delaying their children's school entry. Interest exits among parents, teachers, administrators and medical professionals regarding the potential academic benefits and drawbacks of delaying kindergarten entrance for one additional year, even if students meet the state entrance requirement. The parents who wait to send their children to kindergarten normally cite one or two reasons for keeping their child back a year - either the child's birthday occurs late in the year (July through December), making him or her younger than peers, or the child has exhibited less mature behavior (academic or social) than others of the equivalent age (Frey, 2005). This study examined if it is academically advantageous for students to be older than their peers in the seventh grade and if that advantage changes with a student's gender or parents' socioeconomic status. The study used the April 2011 Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) mathematics vertical scale scores as they relate to students' chronological ages of approximately 1,300 students in seven middle schools in a northwest district of Houston, Texas. The students were broken into six cohort groups based on the date of their birth and the state of Texas's public school enrollment of September first. Archival data was gathered from the TAKS data files to conduct a descriptive statistics study and ANOVA tests to answer the following research questions: Is it academically advantageous to be older than your peers in the grade 7 cohort as indicated by the mathematics achievement scores in the state of Texas's TAKS tests? The results of this study displayed students with delayed entry perform similar to retained students than the traditional cohort or accelerated students. Does an advantage in chronological age at grade 7 differ in males and females? The study found gender does play a role in how the student will perform later in life. Delayed entry males tend to perform similarly to males in the traditional cohort, whereas females perform similarly to retained female students. Are there differences by socioeconomic status in relation to chronological age? The study found that delayed entry students on a free lunch plan perform similarly to students who have been retained. Through this study the researcher will add to the body of knowledge that exists regarding how a student's chronological age affects their achievement in mathematics. Frey, N. (2005).
