520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "At 12 years old, Paige Bonds is 5-foot-5, almost as tall as her mother....A year ago, she was the oldest in her class at the public elementary school she attended near her family's apartment on the South Side of Chicago. Then 11, she was in the third grade--for the third year in a row....Eight years ago [1997], as Paige Bonds was starting school in a struggling neighborhood called Englewood, the city's leaders were embarking on a controversial campaign that would change the public school system. In an effort to end the practice known as social promotion, Chicago officials announced what amounted to a get-tough revolution: third, sixth and eighth graders who failed to achieve minimum scores on standardized tests would be required to repeat a grade. The wisdom of retention, the policy of holding a child back to repeat the same grade, has long been debated." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article presents both sides of the debate on retention policies and includes some of the promotion strategies used by other school districts in the country.
