I cant believe what the school system lets or will do to let a failing student do to be passed to the next grade.
I have a grandchild in the 4 th grade. Hes failing two subjects all year. Insay hold him back and let him learn that he cant skate thru life.
The school now will place him in a special class so he'll do better. He already has a tutor to help him and thats not working. Then if that doesn't work 2 weeks of summer school. What will he learn in 2 weeks that he doesn't all year.
His parents cried he cant be left behind. I said better to do it now than in high school.
It just burns my butt that this stuff happens. I guess next they'll hand out participation trophies for just showing up.
I know teachers have a hard job. Im not blaming them, just the system and parents.
