[quote=Anonymous]Students who are retained in elementary school don't generally catch up. They may seem less behind for the first year or so, but their progress after the retention is slower than it was before, so they continue to lose ground. They are more likely than students with the same profile who are promoted to end up dropping out, and are more likely to leave school functionally illiterate. If your goal is to have middle schoolers who can read then you need to look for interventions that have been shown to produce that outcome, not interventions that produce the opposite.[/quote]
