[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Repeating a grade is one of those things that sounds like a good idea at the time and makes adults feel like they’re doing something to address deficits. But the long-term positive effects are few and far between. If this was something her teachers and principal thought was warranted, they would have brought it up. My guess is that you’re panicking, OP, and grasping for a solution you can control. [/quote] Public schools don't care about development--they don't want kids repeating for financial reasons. Private schools will recommend it more readily. SN schools always have a range of ages b/c kids have repeated. Some don't specify grades especially b/c this might happen. Op, you'll have a tough sell if you're in a public school even with an IEP. A different school is unnecessary just get the input of professionals who know your kid. [/quote]
