Promotion Requirements

To earn promotion to the 4th grade, students should have a reading status of Grade Level or Above on the English Language Arts Georgia Milestones End of Grade (EOG) Assessment. Students who do not meet this criteria may have the opportunity to attend summer school for targeted instruction. These students may be required to retest after summer school. Students should also possess the academic knowledge and skills necessary to be successful at the next grade level.

For the 2025-26 school year, the English Language Arts Georgia Milestones EOG Assessment will not be used to determine promotion as the state completes standards setting for the English assessment due to the introduction of new English standards. A student’s yearlong average in English will be used to determine if students have met the English promotion criteria for 4th grade.

Students who do not have a reading status of Grade Level or Above on the English Language Arts Georgia Milestones EOG but who have a yearlong average that is passing (70 or higher) in Reading may be promoted.
