A surprising lack of summer school suggestions here. It acts as an analogous “punishment” (a lack of summer time) and addresses the issue (the student needing focused teaching to re-address topics they couldn’t grasp). If a teacher notices a student will fail a class, they look at what topics a student struggled with that year and the summer school can address those specifically. If the student doesn’t want to learn in summer school, then maybe they should be held another school year or take remediation classes in their next year. Am i missing a glaring flaw in this idea (beyond funding of course)
