I could be wrong but my feeling is that their true goal is that they do not want him starting 3rd grade on a level that is 4th grade. If they keep him down for a few more months he will end the year the same as his classmate at RR/level 28 and then he can begin 3rd grade at the same level as everyone else.

It's demoralizing for him.
