PROMOTION, PLACEMENT, RETENTION POLICY<br />
At the end of the school year, most students are promoted to the next grade level. A<br />
small number, however, may have to repeat the grade to gain the necessary academic,<br />
social and emotional skills to be successful in the next grade. Placement into the next<br />
grade level may be necessary for some students.<br />
In all cases of placement and retention a parent/teacher teacher conference will be held to<br />
discuss concerns. This should be done no later than the middle of the third nine-week<br />
grading period.<br />
Following the meeting, the teacher will complete a retention recommendation form to be<br />
reviewed by the retention committee. The committee will review the recommendation,<br />
gain teacher input and meet with the parent before the end of the school year.<br />
In all cases of retention the following will be considered:<br />
• The social, emotional and physical maturity of the child.<br />
• Academic achievement (reflected on the grade card) – see guidelines below.<br />
• Group test results.<br />
• Attendance.<br />
• The child’s grade level and age.<br />
• A record of previous retention.<br />
• Parental input<br />
Additional guidelines for placement/retention follow:<br />
Kindergarten – a student who has attended kindergarten for a year and does not have the<br />
ability, maturity or readiness skills to do first grade work successfully will be considered<br />
on an individual basis for retention or placement.<br />
