[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a lot of debate on the extent to which the "Mississippi miracle" is real or an artifact of either 3rd grade retention or something else. But I've been following Kelsey Piper's writing on it, and only 5% of students were retained in 3rd grade, not enough to account for all of the 4th grade reading gains. But the threat of retention perhaps really puts a fire under the butt of student, teacher, and parent and it's something I wish Maryland would consider.[/quote] ... I mean, Maryland does have a 3rd grade retention requirement and it goes into effect in two years?[/quote]
