College degree rare for Chicago freshmen CHICAGO - Only 6.5 percent of Chicago Public Schools freshmen earn a bachelor's degree by their mid-20s, according to a study by the Consortium on Chicago School Research.
Last Tuesday Chicago's Consortium on School Research released findings showing that the public school system's program of holding back poor-performing students and simultaneously ending "social promotion" is what experts call a dismal failure. With abandonment of retention, the school dropout rate would ease from an astronomical rate that's elevated by students who are held back because they do poorly in math and reading. Studies show a dropout rate of 57 percent among students held back once. The rate is a despairingly high 78 percent among those held back more than once. For students who aren't achieving well enough, says Design's Donald Moore, "it's better to promote them and give them intensive special help.

CHICAGO (AP) - Holding back elementary students who don't score well on standardized tests has not worked in Chicago's public schools, according to two new studies. The studies by the nonprofit Consortium on Chicago School Research found that the highly praised program to reduce "social promotions," the model for a similar plan that just went into effect in New York City, has not helped elementary students learn and has actually led to worse academic performance.

Margaret Raymond, director of the Center for Research on Education Outcomes at Stanford University, which conducted a major national study on charter-school performance, says she's observed that charter schools tend to hold students back at higher rates than regular public schools. (New York City did not end social promotion for sixth-graders until the 2009-2010 school year.) High retention rates can help to boost test scores at charter schools, at least in the short term.
