Nearly 5 years after schools closed, the nation gets a new report card
Quick Glance: Students' Academic Decline Persists Post-Pandemic
  • The latest national exam results indicate that U.S. children are falling further behind in reading and making minimal progress in math, continuing the trend from the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Increasing inequality between high-performing and low-performing students is particularly concerning, with the top 10% improving while the bottom 10% decline.

  • Despite some positive outcomes in states like Louisiana and Alabama, the overall results are deemed 'heartbreaking' and highlight a failing education system.

  • Improvements in several urban school districts are attributed to targeted academic recovery efforts funded by federal pandemic relief.
