In the NYC schools, can you hold over a special education student for missing more then 120 days of school?

I am a first year teacher and my administration is saying that just because they are special education they have to be promoted to the next grade. I don't believe it's right to pass a student on to second grade when they weren't here for first. This child is a very low student who in my opinion would benifit from repeating the grade. Thanks for your help!
