America’s students are behind.
Learning losses during the pandemic haven’t caught up, according to a report card from the National Center for Education Statistics.
The average student is half a grade level behind in reading and math compared to pre-pandemic levels, according to the report, but results varied by state.
Student test scores in Pennsylvania and Ohio hit the average the report shows, while Florida and Michigan are two-thirds of a year behind. For Maine, Oregon and Vermont, students are closer to a year behind pre-pandemic levels.
The report, compiled by researchers from Harvard, Stanford and Dartmouth, compared math and reading test scores of 4th grade and 8th grade students from 2019 and 2024.
