[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are SOL scores a fluke when if you fail you can retake them?

If you don't have the sense throughout the year that your kid may need SELT and are surprised now doesn't that mean you weren't paying attention to your kid's education?  Kids with 4s are not being offered SELT.[/quote]

OP again.  See my previous post about asking for - and being denied - help from the teacher throughout the year.  In addition, my DC has always had 3s and 4s on her report card.   :roll: [/quote]

NP here.  My daughter was offered SELT pretty much at the end of last year with no explanation from the teacher.  We were surprised and annoyed because nothing had ever been mentioned about remediation and our daughter was reading at grade level; she also had mostly 4s with a few 3s.  We were taken aback because we felt that if she had been deficient, the teacher should've said something earlier so we could have gotten her the help she needed.  Regardless, we put her in and her SELT teacher was always very complimentary about her reading.  At the beginning of this year, her teacher mentioned to us that she was expecting DD to be reading at a much lower level and was very shocked to find out that was not the case.  She thinks that what PPs mentioned had happened- that others had turned it down and they were trying to fill the spot.

Anyway, it did take a lot of schedule rearranging as both DH and I work,  but I'm glad we put her in.  It did seem to help a lot, even if she didn't really "need" it. [/quote]
