Description
The COVID-19 pandemic and school shutdowns caused significant setbacks in student learning, exacerbating existing gaps between high-performing and underserved students. It is estimated that in some districts, students lost out as much as two years' worth of learning in both reading and math. Leaders at the state and local level must act now to address this unfinished learning, or we risk devastating impacts to our future workforce and economy.
