At one point in my elementary education we were restricted by reading levels and could only read a higher level after we took some test that showed comprehension of what we read. I'm sure someone remembers the name for this but I don't. Long story short, I read a book that was at one of the highest levels and passed the test and after that my teacher kind of shrugged and said I could read whatever I want.
Limiting students is useless, especially when they're so young and their sponges are like brains.
