[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the open house, I understood that they routinely hold kids back. If a child does not want to repeat the grade, they have to leave, so technically you cannot fault the school or call the practice illegal, as the parent is choosing to withdraw. Most public schools do not hold kids back even if they are way behind. Both are problematic in their own different ways. [/quote] Yeah, I also heard this at the open house (maybe we were at the same one)... She said that around 20 percent of the kids don't pass their comps, and while they have a chance to retake it (or repeat), the student often leaves.[/quote]
