[quote=Anonymous]10:22 here: OP- it may be worthwhile to consult with an advocate. I have done a consultation with them about a similar issue and it was about $150. At this point, is your child meeting the academic benchmarks for 1st? If he/she is not, that is a justification for retaining. You definitely need to agree to the placement decision. So if you are adamant about it, refuse to sign. If you are not so adamant, you truly may want to retain those extra years. An advocate told me that those years at the end are the more crucial if the child is on an alternative track. I strongly believe in the strong early foundation, etc but quite frankly (and I say this being in a similar position) if you are questioning whether your child is on a diploma track now, you may want to repeat at a different point in time where the academics become a lot harder or you may want to hold on to those years.
