The LRS is a powerful tool that assists school professionals in making sensitive and often difficult decisions about promoting or retaining a child. Because it contains one of the most comprehensive literature reviews of grade retention ever compiled, it helps educators better understand the pros and cons of grade retention. It also assures parents that their decision is based on thoughtful, professional findings. The Light's Scale, an easy-to-use recording form, identifies 19 specific areas of concern, including the child's age and the age(s) of siblings, the child's emotional maturity, life experiences, level of intelligence, behavior, and more. When it's time to explain to parents the basis for your decision, use the handy Light's Parent Guide, which includes a concise statement of important factors used in decision-making. Spanish translations of the Light's Recording Form and Parent Guide are useful when working with Spanish-speaking parents.
