Thank you everyone for your input.
To answer some of your questions--- my son has issues with his sight words-- often a complete lack of recognition. The Reading Recovery program gives him 30 minutes one on one with a teacher each day. He brings home a book to read every night. For the most part he does great with reading those books, but anything else is a nightmare.
I emailed the teacher this afternoon and still have not received a response. I am very surprised I received a letter sent home in the backpack as well. I would expect that something as serious as retention would have resulted in a phone call, conferencing, etc.
Regarding summer school, he is already enrolled. Our district used the Summer Adventure program by Newton Learning. I am not sure how much teaching is done; I do know the students get paid for attending ($100 for perfect attendance).
Regarding Sylvan, thank you for the input. We are going to do the test. When I talked to the lady in charge of the early reading program she is a certified teacher but just moved her in Jan and has not got certified in MO yet.
Thank you for your input- I will post when I know something
