Do they still line up the kids by height in school? If so, measure the
shortest and tallest, and the maximum and minimum diameters among
a representative few. If the school thinks this might be somehow disruptive
or "size-ist", could they trace the outlines of all the kids on a sheet of
newsprint, and you could then see your size ranges?
A school with a lot of kids with a, say, Japanese genetic
background is likely to have a different sample size and distribution among
the kids than a school with a population from Scandanavian countries.
And neither school will probably accurately map to the "average" sizes of
all US kindergarteners.
I assume these will be simple t-tunic type garments, and they can either
be belted to take up excess length, or quickly turned up and staple-hemmed
at school?
