I totally disagree about holding kids back. When they come into middle and high school without the fundamentals, they are much more likely to drop out. I really think that we need to get over the social promotion idea. We don't socially promote in high school just because you show up. I am the foster mom to a child with learning disabilities. I think one year of review would have been great. I think though that the child should change schools so they are not taunted.
