[quote=Anonymous]15:46 holding a kid back has nothing to do with reaching grade level. A struggling reader isn't the same thing as a kid with severe dyslexia who can't read. My kid was in private K. They recommended "repeating" K, which did nothing b/c they didn't address the underlying learning disability. I've known several kids who made it through the 3rd grade in public unable to read--let alone at grade level. They all had dyslexia and learned to compensate by faking there way through classes or becoming utter emotional wrecks b/c they were incredibly stressed out. Once the problem was identified and remediated, things got back on track.[/quote]
