[quote=Anonymous]A lifelong close friend of mine (who is a special education teacher herself) had her daughter repeat first grade in a public school (didn’t switch schools) around 2009/2010. I recall that my friend said her DD’s teacher was the one who broached it, and my friend concurred. Her DD is halfway through college at a state flagship now and it doesn’t appear to have negatively affected her. My friend, however, had the skills, time, awareness & knowledge to advocate for her DD in a way that a lot of parents of academically struggling students do not. [/quote]
