Math scores of K-12 students in the U.S. plummeted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hopes that these scores would rebound among teenagers after the pandemic have proven vain. In 2023, U.S. News & World Report reported that math scores among teenagers are the worst they’ve been since the 1970s.
The New York Times likewise reports that U.S. students’ performance in math plunged in a 2023 global exam. Although scores fell across the globe, there was a 13-point drop among 15-year-olds in the U.S. — a much sharper drop than observed in other countries. U.S. students fell behind peers in similar industrialized democracies such as the United Kingdom, Australia and Germany, and trail far behind students in the highest-scoring countries, including Singapore, South Korea and Estonia.

And the beat goes on….
What the Data Says About Pandemic School Closures, Four Years Later
The more time students spent in remote instruction, the further they fell behind. And, experts say, extended closures did little to stop the spread of Covid.Published March 18, 2024Updated March 19, 2024, 9:31 a.m. ET
Four years ago this month, schools nationwide began to shut down, igniting one of the most polarizing and partisan debates of the pandemic.
Some schools, often in Republican-led states and rural areas, reopened by fall 2020. Others, typically in large cities and states led by Democrats, would not fully reopen for another year.
A variety of data — about children’s academic outcomes and about the spread of Covid-19 — has accumulated in the time since. Today, there is broad acknowledgment among many public health and education experts that extended school closures did not significantly stop the spread of Covid, while the academic harms for children have been large and long-lasting.

Now now, you know we are supposed to move on... Haven't you been told yet, by those that were wrong for 3 yrs, that we need to move on and stop telling them they were wrong.
This post will show up here tomorrow, after it is "approved" for Covid misinformation.
