[quote=Anonymous]Basis is the only school in DC that doesn't socially promote. You need at least 60% on each comp (combining native and common) to move to the next grade. Your kid should reach out to the school for help if he/she thinks that he/she can't do that. The school will do all it can to assist. Your kid may need to go in for additional help or even take the subject over the summer. It is unusual but a few kids do repeat a grade. To be honest, if your kid is not getting at least 60% on each comp, 7th grade would be a really struggle. The curriculum builds on the coursework from 6th grade but is significantly more advanced. Probably your best bet is to stick it out, see how your kid does, and it looks like he/she has to repeat 6th grade, then bail for your in-bounds school or move. Good luck![/quote]
