[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a worry that having kids repeat a grade increases the chance they will drop out before they graduate [/quote] why not just have the HS kid go to continuing education at community college? I think that's what they did back in my day, in the 80s. A kid who graduates only reading at an ES level and can barely do math serves no one, least of all the kid.[/quote] Kids do take part in that. You’re just not aware of it. See Edison HS in MCPS.[/quote]
