For children PreK & under, classes are calculated based on the child's age as of the current date, and the age ranges can be adjusted. For kindergarten and older, classes are calculated by the grade promotion date which can be adjusted. (Click HERE for more details on Grade Promotion Date & Manual Override.)
Ages PreK & Under
Default: Days old as of CURRENT DATE (You can change these age ranges in Child Development Settings.)
Newborns: 1 -- 28 days
Infants: 29 -- 365 (1 month -- 12 months)
Toddlers: 366 -- 1095 (more than 1 yr -- less than or equal to 3 years)**
Pre-K: 1096 – 1825 (more than 3 years-- less than or equal to 5 years)**
**Regarding years, when a lower age limit says "more than X years," that means a child X years and a day or older; when an upper age limit says "less than or equal to X years," that means a child up to exactly X years - as soon as they turn X years and a day or more, they are above that age limit. In the example below, the lower age limit for toddlers is set to "more than 1 year," meaning a child 1 year and a day or older. The upper age limit is set to "less than or equal to 3 years" meaning a child up to exactly three years old. However, as soon as they turn 3 years and a day or more, they'd move into the next category of Pre-K, since at that point they're "more than (exactly) 3 years."

GRADE PROMOTION DATE (K & UP)
By default, our system calculates what grade a child falls into based on their birthday per your grade promotion date. Promotion dates are used by schools and are traditionally September 1. However, we discovered that some churches use a different date when calculating grades. You are able to change the date our system uses to calculate grades K-12 from your Child Development Settings. You are also able to change the age ranges for PreK & under. (Click HERE for more details on Grade Promotion Date & Manual Override.)
