California starts the 4 year clock when you enroll in HS.  If you want to reclass you have to repeat 8th grade or earlier, which lots of athletes do.

Same in our state.  Half of the athletes in my kids' Sophomore class reclassed by taking an extra year in the adjoining Private Catholic Middle School (some of the classes were in the High School) after 8th grade and no on seems to care (HS coaches, ranking services, parents).  Many of them are not elite and it won't matter except to their helicopter parents. For  a handful, they will have a significant advantage academically, athletically in school and for recruiting purposes,  and even in the draft.  Try explaining this to your kid some day..
