Slipping through the cracks part 2

It seems as though one of my students will be moving down to 3rd grade. They are 8 years old in the 4th grade and do not know the alphabet. How this wonderful child ended up in a 4th grade class is astonishing.

The very interesting thing is is that they had a very good teacher last year who fought hard as his advocate and yet he was still passed on and is still not getting the services he needs.

It's a shame.
