[quote=Anonymous]The 3rd grade retention rule is not the main driver of Mississippi’s success. We can replicate many of the pieces of their success without introducing that piece, which I believe isn’t helpful. They also mandated an evidence-based curricula, literacy coaches for teachers, specific training/certification of teachers of 3rd grade and lower. Debate retention all you want (I believe it’s unnecessary because you can have almost every child on grade level in reading and math with enough intensive, evidence based instruction) but try to focus on those elements that are most impactful.[/quote]
