Third graders who were non-proficient in reading only and promoted to the 4th grade through the enrollment roll forward process automatically have an enrollment record that records the promotion. After this process, the school is responsible for creating a new RtA Program entry to record "RRET: Reading Retained (end of 3rd grade)." In the student's 4th grade record, RtA Program data from grade 3 will not be carried forward to the next school year.
Note: This does not include students who have a Good Cause Exemption. Additionally, students who demonstrated proficiency during the summer should not be labeled “RRET: Reading Retained (end of 3rd grade)" in the 4th grade. This label is not required if a student is to be retained for other reasons besides RtA. Follow the typical retention process.
