Should retention mandates, that require students that don’t read on grade level by the end of 3rd grade, be packaged alongside reforms to teaching methods?

The debate about this element of several states’ legislative overhauls to reading is heating up, spurred by complex new research and the subsequent identification of thousands of children subject to retention in various states.

In this webinar, learn what research says about 3rd grade retention, and under what conditions it might be successful.
