INT'RODUCT'ION

Retention (requiring a student to repeat a grade) is an important policy issuebecause it can have a significant impact on achievement and the dropout rate. Thoughretention is often looked at as a result of a student's academic or social problems in school,research has shown that retention is also a cause of these and related difficulties. Manystudies have shown that retention rarely improves achievement or gives students anadvantage in later grades. In fact, retention may disrupt academic growth and increase thechances that students will drop out of school before graduating. Even though retention canhave such a major effect on students' academic careers, statistics and research aboutretention in the Chicago Public Schools have not been sufficiently examined or publiclydiscussed in the past.

The purpose of this report is to review the Chicago Public Schools official policyonpromotion and retention, discuss research on the issue of retention, and analyze June 1989retention rates in Chicago. This paper contains three separate sections plus an index andreference section. The first section discusses retention and promotion policies in Chicagoand other cities and reviews some research on the effects of retention and promotion onstudent achievement and dropping out. The second section presents statistics aboutretention rates in the Chicago Public Schools. The final section lists June 1989 retentionrates for every grade in each graded elementary school. The schools are grouped bycommunity area so that neighboring schools can be compared. An index follows to providethe community area for each school.

The Panel is studying retention rates as part of its project to monitor theimplementation of school reform. One of the Reform Act objectives is a reduction in theretention rate:

educational reform...shall be implemented in such a manner that:...by the conclusionof the 1993-94 school year, the percentage of students within the district failing andnot advancing to the next higher grade or graduating is at least 10% less than thepercentage of students within the district failing and not advancing to the next highergrade or graduating at the conclusion of the 1987-88 school year.1

The June 1989 retention data that is contained in this paper will be base line informationfor our future reports on how retention rates are affected by the implementation of schoolreform.

The Board of Education's Department of Research, Evaluation, and Planningcollected the grade retention data examined in this report from elementary schools startingin June of 1989. The Department provided the Chicago Panel with this data in ,,der tocooperate with the Panel's project Monitoring School Reform in Chicago. The ChicagoPanel and the Chicago Board of Education, along with other research groups, plan toundertake several cooperative or collaborative endeavors related to assessing the impact ofschool reform in Chicago.

THE EFFECTS OF RETENTION AND PROMOTION ON STUDENTS

The Context of Grade Retention Data

Public schools in the past decade have been under increasing pressure to producebetter prepared students -- students who can read, write and compute mathematics at ornear grade level! In Chicago, educators and the public are rightfully alarmed at statisticsthat show that students often graduate from high school without having achievedcompetency in basic skills such as reading and mathematics. For example, in 1988-89, only32.6% of eleventh grade Chicago public school students scored at or above grade level inreading on the nationally standardized Test of Achievement and Proficiency (TAP) and only29.9% scored at or above grade level in mathematics on the same test. In order to keepChicago up to national standards, at least 50% of students must score at or above gradelevel.

Like many other school boards during the 1980s, the Chicago Board of Educationresponded to the concern over lack of student competency by changing the standard bywhich elementary students were promoted from one grade to the next. The Board adopteda tougher promotion policy in 1985 that based grade promotion decisions on a student'sreading and math scores on the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) as well as on completionof the curriculum.

This promotion policy requires that promotion decisions be based on a student'stest scores which must be above certain minimum standards. The policy states that a"student shall not be promoted from one grade to the next if the student has not met theminimum levels of performance for the assigned grade levels!""

However, in direct contradiction to this requirement, the Board's policy also statesthat "...decisions must be made on an individual basis...bringing to bear all that is knownabout the student."-5 It states that grade retention should be a last resort to be used "onlyif all other intervention strategies have failed to bring the student up to minimum levels ofperformance and only if it is genuinely felt that the student will profit from an extra yearin the elementary school:'

The policy thus offers two opposing criteria for retention/promotion decisions: onethat bases retention decisions on the individual characteristics of the student, and thesecond that requires that the staff retain every child who does not reach a certain testscore.

Because of the ambiguity of this promotion policy, staff at different schools haveinterpreted the policy in different ways. Some schools have looked at the overallperformance of each student when making retention decisions, but many others have reliedsimply on the test score.

riteria for Promotion Retention Decisi n in the Chica g o Poli

The 1985 promotion policy was a response to what national critics perceived to bea lack of standards for public school students. Many people thought children were coastingthrough school and were merely passed on to a new teacher at the next grade even if they

2

Page 7: 1:*******x - ERIC · DOCUMENT RESUME ED 319 499 PS 018 781 AUTHOR Easton, John Q.; Storey, Sandra TITLE June 1989 Grade Retention in Chicago Public. Elementary Schools. Monitoring

had not achieved minimum grade level competency. The tougher promotion policyattempted to appease these critics by increasing the number of students who were retainedin grade due to poor achievement test scores. This policy was supposed to give newaccountability to teachers, who could not pass on low achieving students as easily, d tostudents, who could no longer expect to be promoted and graduate if they did not meetminimum requirements on a standardized test.

The desire to increase achievement and accountability is certainly laudable. Chicagostudents do need to reach national standards in order t) be competitive in future educationand employment. However, local school councils, principals, teachers and the ChicagoBoard of Education need to examine whether the current promotion policy will have apositive effect on education.

The current promotion policy has been criticized for using ITBS scores as a methodof identifying students who have not learned enough. The most compelling objection to theuse of ITBS scores for promotion decisions is that individual student scores are prone toerror and are easily influenced by factors such as illness at the time of testing, mistakes inusing the answer sheet, poor test-taking skills, and distractions in the test taking setting.Consequently, the test does not always reflect the knowledge of the student. David Labareeof Georgetown University argued this point in reference to the New York City PromotionalGates Program which had a policy of retaining any student who did not score at or aboveset minimums on the reading section of the California Achievement Test:

Any achievement test score should be viewed statistically as a rough estimate of astudent's true ability and thus is best expressed as a confidence interval rather thatas a single figure...a number of the students who pass have true scores below thecutoff while a number of those who fail have true scores above the cutoff!

Another valid criticism of using ITBS scores to make promotion decisions is thatnationally standardized tests do not test students on their progress in the Chicagocurriculum, but on their progress in what the test-makers consider to be what "most. schoolsteach at a particular grade level. Labaree also addressed this issue in his discussion ofPromotional Gates:

It is hardly valid or fair to evaluate what a student has learned on the basis of a testmeasuring what he or she has not been taught, or at least has not been exposed toin that particular form. National standardized tests ate so abstract in their relationto particular curricula and instructional practices that their validity as measures ofstudent learning should always be suspect.8

Labaree argues that if the test is to be a valid measure of student learning, it may meanthat teachers must teach to the test, which most educators agree is an rnfortunate sacrificeof curriculum for the sake of higher test scores.

The current Board has addressed the problems contained in the official promotionpolicy by establishing a committee to revise the policy. The new policy will probablycontain different measures by which students are retained or promoted. However, evenmore important than whether or not the current policy uses correct criteria for

37

retention/promotion decisions is whether retention in grade will improve the student'seducation.

Research Evidence on Promotion or Retention

Most schools use retention as a method of improving the retained student'sachievement. However, the bulk of the research evidence on the effects of graderepetition show that retained students do not have higher achievement levels. Althoughsome researchers claim that grade retention is ,:eneficial, many others have found thatstudents are done more harm than good when they are forced to repeat a grade.

Gregg Jackson, author of a critical review of the research on the effects thatretention has on achievement, believes that the reason why different studies have come upwith opposite conclusions is that most of them contain inherent biases in their researchdesign toward either grade retention or E 'cial promotion (the practice of promoting astudent automatically).9 Of the studies that did not contain bias, the data was notstatistically significant. Jackson found from his research review that 'There is no reliablebody of evidence to indicate that grade retention is more beneficial iho.n grade

,promotion...' .io He argued that educators who hold students back "...do so without validresearch evidence to indicate that [retention] will provide greater benefits to students withacademic or adjustment difficulties than will promotion to the next grade."11

Most writers who have done extensive reviews of the research on the effects ofglade retention tend to believe promotion is more likely to improve achievement thanretention. According to Labaree, of the six major Met ature reviews in the ten yearspreceding the time he wrote his paper "not one of these writers adopts a position in supportof retention. Three remain neutral on the policy question, while one...mildly favors socialpromotion, and the remaining two strongly support social promotion."12

C. Thomas Holmes, in his two meta-analyses of the research on retention andpromotion, strongly supported social promotion because he found that grade retentionactually inhibits the student's achievement: "It seems that retained pupils fall behindduring the year that they are retained and spend the rest of their academic careers invain attempt to catch up."13 The later meta- analysis that Holmes coauthored came to asimilar conclusion finding that the "potential for negative effects consistently outweighspositive outcomes."14

_ lonica Overman, in a research review she wrote for the Phi Delta Kappan, arguedthat the evidence showed that retention does not boost achievement:

The tenor of the times may account, at least in part, for the current popularity ofachievement-based promotion. But the evidence to date suggests that achievement-based promotion does not deal effectively with the problem of low achievement.15

In addition to having a negative effect (or, at best, no effect) on achievement,retention has been correlated to increaseu dropout rates. A study of the class of 1982 bythe Chicago Panel found that overage freshman are more likely to eventually drop outthan normal age students who are at the same reading level. Overage students are alsom...-z likely to drop out than normal age freshman with lower scores. For example, of

4

Page 9: 1:*******x - ERIC · DOCUMENT RESUME ED 319 499 PS 018 781 AUTHOR Easton, John Q.; Storey, Sandra TITLE June 1989 Grade Retention in Chicago Public. Elementary Schools. Monitoring

overage freshman who scored in the sixth stanine or higher (high achievement), 37.9%eventurOly dropped out compared to only 18.3% for normal age freshman in stanine six orup and 27% of normal age freshman who scored in the fifth stanine (averageachievement).16 The pattern is repeated at other reading achievement levels. The overagedropout rate is approximately 11 to 15 percentage points higher than the normal agedropout rate when comparing students in the same reading stanine. When overage studentsare compared to normal age students in the next lower stanine, the overage dropout rateis at least six percentage points higher in almost every comparison.

Staff researchers at the Chicago Public Schools' Department of Research, Evaluationand Planning have also studied the effects of grade retention. One of their studies used aformat comparable to the Chicago Panel study discussed above, but analyzed records ofstudents in later classes!' This study reached findings similar to those in the ChicagoPanel's study. A second study found that rigid 1980 promotion standards that affected onlyeighth graders resulted in an increase in the dropout rate for the class of 1985.18

Additional support for the research finding that retention increases the dropout ratehas come recently from the New York City public schools. After ten years of thePromotional Gates program that required schools to retain large numbers of fourth andseventh graders based on poor test scores, the New York City Schools Chancellor, JosephFernandez, has decided to scrap the program. One of the reasons for eliminatingPromotional Gates was its effect on the dropout rate. According to Fernandez, 'Theprogram may have been well-intended. But over all, it has not worked. A disproportionatenumber of kids are becoming dropouts."19

Alternatives to Retention

Though retention has many negative effects, social promotion by itself is not thesolution to low achievement. Promotion may have fewer negative effects than retention,yet merely moving a low achieving student forward a grade is not enough. Students withacademic difficulties need intervention in order to raise their achievement.

Charleston County School District in South Carolina recently developed acomprehensive new strategy to raise the achievement levels and the graduation rate of itsstudents without using grade retention. Its diverse school district includes inner-city,suburban and rural students, many of whom are at-risk, low-achieving students. The newplan begins in the early grades and serves as an alternative to retention for low-achievingstudents while at the same time enhancing the education of all students. According toDavid Sklarz, deputy superintendent of curriculum and instruction, the program containsthe following interventions:

1. High quality kindergarten programs that focus on reading readiness;

2. Individualized instruction including extra-help from teachers, computerassisted learning and students helping students;

*Standardized test scores are divided into nine scores, called stanines. Stanines 1, 2 and3 are considered low achievement. Stanines 4, 5 and 6 are considered average achievement.Stanines 7, 8 and 9 are considered high achievement.

3. Strong emphasis on reading skills. Students are moved up to new readinggroups as they progress, without waiting until the end of the semester to movethem and regardless of age or grade level. All upper elementary, middle andhigh school teachers, not just English teachers, teach good reading and writingskills as well as their subject area;

4. Creative use of summer school. Summer school is given a positive image andis used to enrich students who might fall behind in the ten weeks they spendaway from school. The summer school program is a non-graded learningexperience that is meant to compensate for the at-risk student's lack oflearning resources in the summer. The emphasis is on helping all at-riskstudents, not just those who have failed courses,

5. Incentive awards for teachers and encouragement for teachers to takeassignments at schools with many at-risk students;

6. Parent workshops that teach parents how to actively participate in theirchildren's schooling and how to reinforce good behavior. The program alsooffers a homework assistance hot-line for parents;

7. Alternative schools or programs for potential dropouts;

8. Improved school discipline that uses alternatives to suspension so thatstudents will not miss school;

9. Special staff development programs that will show teachers and administratorsthe advantage of having high expectations of students. The goal is that theschool staff will "...want all children to learn and...believe that all children canlearn."2°

New York City is also initiating a new tactic to deal with students who achieve belowgrade level. Instead of the Promotional Gates system of automatically retaining studentswho test poorly at the third grade level, students are offered a six week summer schoolprogram after third grade and an after school program during fourth grade. Students whoparticipate in these programs are not retained?'

Other alternatives to grade retention have been recommended by educationalreseamhers. One is the use of formal individualized education plans (IEPs). With IEPs,the school can promote low performing students to the next grade level but offer specialhelp in problem areas. This intervention addresses the individual student's needs insteadof merely promoting the student. The IEP also benefits higher achieving students byallowing them to do more advanced work while remaining with their age peers 22

Low achiever, may also benefit from a curriculum that gives them meaningful work:for example, studehrs can be given real world math problems instead of multiplicationtables and drills. This has the dual effect of making education more interesting andincreasing learning:

Page 11: 1:*******x - ERIC · DOCUMENT RESUME ED 319 499 PS 018 781 AUTHOR Easton, John Q.; Storey, Sandra TITLE June 1989 Grade Retention in Chicago Public. Elementary Schools. Monitoring

The belief that children have to master component skills before moving on tocomprehension and problem solving consigns slow learners to school work that is notonly boring but devoid of any connection to the kinds of problems they encounterin the real world. Furthermore, current learning theory indicates that skills cannotbe learned effectively nor applied to new problems unless they are learned incontext.23

The solution to low achievement need not be retention. The best way to raiseachievement is to intervene when a child is identified as a candidate for possible retention,and to restructure the student's educational program so that retention is not necessary.The school should also design its general approach to teaching and learning so that allstudents are taught in an environment where they can stay with their age group and learnat their own pace.

Schools should carefully assess the effects of different interventions on students overtime to determine what learning approaches are most successful. Researchers at schools,at the central office of the Chicago Public Schools, and those at other agencies andorganizations should study what alternatives to retention are the most effective methodsof raising achievement and insuring successful high school completion.

ELEMENTARY RETENTION STATISTICS FOR JUNE 1989

Ir. June 198,, Chicago public elementary schools retained 11,673 students out of anenrollment of 274,231. These retained or non-promoted studs :its accounted for 43% of thetotal elementary school e.irollment in graded schools. (This enrollment and retention datadoes not include non-graded special-education students and schools.)

_Grade by Grade Retenton_Rate*

Systemwide retention rates for June of 1989 widely differed between grades. Themost retention occurred at the first grade where 2,999 students (8.9% of all first graders)were required to repeat the first grade. After first grade, the percentage of retainedstudents steadily declined until the seventh and eighth grades where the retention ratesincreased slightly. The lowest retention rate is at the kindergarten level. Only 254kindergarten students (0.9%) were retained in the spring of 1989. The retention rates foreach grade are shown in the graph and accoml-tanying table below.

Retention rates vary dramatically from one school to another within the ChicagoPublic School system. For example, although the citywide retention rate at the first gradeis 8.9 %©, thirty-four schools have first grade retention rates that are two times greater thanthe citywide first grade retention rate.

The table below contains more detailed information about the distribution ofretention rates for each grade. The table shows how many schools re :tined between 0%and 1.9%, 2.0% and 3.9%, 4.0% to 5.9%, etc., of their students. For example, 378elementary schools (the number in the upper left hand corner) retained between 0% and1.9% of their kindergarten students. 48 elementary schools retained between 2.0% and3.9% of their first grade students, and so on. At most grade levels the majority of schoolshave retention rates of less than 4%. The exceptions are first and second grades.

Factors Related to chgolRetenlionRates.

Several factors are statistically related to school retention rates. Listed below arethe factors, in order of importance, that predict what percent of students were re tained inJune of 1989. (It is important to note that these statistics are based on school averages, noton individual student records, so they do not necessarily indicate what factors affect anindividual retention decision.)

1. Attendance Rate. On the average, the higher the overall attendance ratein a school, the lower the overall retention rate. Attendance and retention rates are notperfectly correlated, but this factor is more highly related to retention than any other factor.

2. Achievement test scores. On the average, the higher the achievement testscores, the lower the retention rates. Achievement test scores are not as strongly relatedto retention rates as attendance is. Although test score results are related to retention,many exceptions are found.

3. Percent of Low Income Students. Poorer schools tend to have higherretention rates than less poor schools. This is true on the average, but there are manyexceptions of poor schools with low retention rates and schools with few poor students andhigher retention rates.

4. Mobility rate. Schools that have higher percentages of students who movein or out of the school during the year tend to have slightly higher retention rates. Thisfactor is the weakest predictor of retention.

The table on the following page contains the correlation coefficients betweenretention rates and the school factors listed above.
