This is a debate we're having in our district this year.
We have many students who are doing very little or nothing when they're on remote learning. They are missing several assignments and tests and definitely aren't checking in for attendance every day with their teacher. Because of this, they are failing and are considered truant as well.
The question is ----- should these children be retained in their grade another year because of it or should they go on to the next grade because it's (for the most part) their parents' fault that they aren't doing their work?
Note: This poll is only talking about gen ed kids, not SPED or newcomers to the country.
