[QUOTE="TheBoyHasArrived, post: 583492, member: 14829"] The school can make a recommendation one way or the other, but if your child is on an IEP, it's a team decision. Research indicates that retention doesn't solve problems in the long run...BUT, it's a personal decision. We may retain Kiddo this year in kindergarten to give him an extra year of language development and behavior supports before entering first grade, where he will have to sit for much longer periods of time. I think if the goal of retaining a child is to have them "catch up" academically, it's probably going to be disappointing. [/QUOTE]
