Tennessee's 3rd Grade Retention Law

 

Beginning in the 2022-23 school year, 3rd-grade students who receive “approaching” or “below” on the English Language Arts (ELA) section of the TCAP assessment can get important learning support from their school for free to ensure they are ready to move on to the 4th grade.  If a student’s family does not wish to take advantage of these supports provided by the school district, the student will be retained to 3rd grade the following school year and will not be promoted to 4th grade.  However, the following students are exempt from 3rd-grade retention: English learners with less than two years of ELA instruction, students previously retained in grades K-3, students with a disability that impacts reading, or students with a suspected disability that impacts reading. The school district will notify you if your student is identified for retention and will provide information about the pathways available to your student to move to 4th grade, including free summer camps and/or tutoring support. For more information about the 3rd-grade retention law visit https://www.tn.gov/education/learning-acceleration.html.
