One of my ds's turned 6 on December 12, 2007. I am looking at the Regs again - still working on those pesky quarterly reports - and I think that I am not required to do anything for him. Correct?

Here's the Q & A answer on their website:
38. When must a student begin to receive instruction?
A change in Education Law 3205, which became effective on July 26, 1993, clarifies the age at which a student is subject to compulsory education. The law now requires children who turn six on or before December 1 to receive instruction from the start of the school year in September of that year. Children who turn six after December 1 must begin to receive instruction no later than the first day of school the following September.

Thanks,
Amy

I'd say you are reading that right. The quarterlies seem pesky alright.

If your child turned six after December 1, then you're in the clear until September.

And you can call your son a K-er next year and do minimal reporting then.
