[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So my kid failed the Reading SOL.  Not by much, but failed nonetheless.

What happens in school?  Do they track these kids differently? This is in elementary school.

Nothing. Nothing happens. They might give your child extra math pull outs, but they are not effective.

Not entirely true. A failure in the last grade in elementary can put them in remediation in middle school where they lose an elective.[/quote]

At least at our kid's middle school, that requires parental consent.  [/quote]

they can't force any kid into the MS literacy class. They can strongly suggest it but can't force it. And the class is generally terrible.[/quote]

Please don’t spread untrue information. Kids most certainly can be placed in a decoding class in middle school if they can’t read. Some schools may leave that to parents. But some schools do not.[/quote]

I think your info is false. No school can force a kid into a literacy class if the parents say no.[/quote]

Again, the Virginia Literacy Act:
Beginning in the 2024-2025 school year:

Every student in kindergarten to grade five will receive core literacy instruction based in scientifically based reading research and evidence-based literacy instruction, as defined in the VLA. Students in kindergarten through grade eight will also receive evidence-based supplemental instruction and intervention, as outlined in an individualized student reading plan, if they do not meet literacy benchmarks.[/quote]
