[quote=Anonymous]In most instances DCPS schools will socially promote regardless of a student's failing grades. Pre-comps are not the only gauge of how a student is doing. Their quiz grades, et cetera will all be in the student's communication journal, all a parent has to do is flip through it to see how their kid is doing. There's really no reason why a BASIS parent wouldn't know how their kid is doing on week to week basis. If a student is failing mid-year and their family decides to pull out, that is not "being counseled out". Nobody is asking them to leave, it's the family's own choice - and, they do have choices. They can stay and try harder for the remainder of the year and try to pass, or they can accept the possibility of failing, working on the materials over the summer and retaking the comp to advance, or they can consider the prospect of staying and repeating, or they can look at other charters, or DCPS - entirely the family's own decision.[/quote]
