In some states, Louisiana is one, a student that "holds back" can lose some eligibility. I don't have the rule to quote chapter and verse, but I do know that it is quite common for kids around here to fail a subject intentionally to allow them to repeat the 7th or 8th grade without losing eligibility. A person might need to check this out in his own state before making a decision.
