Tanner, C. Kenneth; Decotis, John D.
Journal of Research and Development in Education, v28 n3 p135-44 Spr 1995
Kindergartners and first-graders in regular classrooms were compared to students in nongraded, continuous-progress settings. Comparisons on academic achievement and school attitudes indicated differences favoring nongraded, continuous-progress settings for various academic and citizenship skills. Girls in the nongraded, continuous-progress group had significantly higher positive attitude scores toward school in several areas. (SM)
