Read before relying

Context matters.

Age eligibility is not the same as guaranteed enrollment. Residency, documentation, program availability, readiness assessment and transfer rules can still apply.
For states that delegate the cutoff locally, the exact district calendar is required; CalcSpan does not invent a statewide date.
State statutes and district policies can change after the cited comparison. Recheck the district for the selected school year.

The calculation guide and this source trail show what the result means, where the rule came from and when it was last reviewed. This is source-and-calculation QA, not a claim of medical, legal, tax or other professional review; time-sensitive decisions still belong with the linked authority.
