Only 44 percent of Michigan third-graders passed the M-Step reading test administered in April 2018.

Research clearly shows that retaining a student is not an effective strategy to improve student achievement. In fact, data from the National Center for Education Statistics shows that retention does not reliably boost student achievement, and that retained students are much more likely to drop out of school than students who have not been retained.
