Check out the above link to the excellent Thompson article:
“When students attended class at a rate of 95%, had excellent behavior, and put forth “greater-than-average effort in class,” a remarkable 77% closed their achievement gaps.” On the other hand, sixth graders who failed math or English, who had an attendance rate of 80% or less, or had a poor behavior grade, had only a 10 to 20% chance of graduating on time. Worse, even “mild but sustained misbehavior” is a significant risk factor.”
So much for credit recovery, let alone focus on test prep and scores. Got good behavior? Got attendance recovery?
