WI Report Card Not One To Hang on The Fridge

WI Report Card Not One To Hang on The Fridge

 It’s the latest sign of just how much school kids in Wisconsin lost during the coronavirus. 

The state’s Department of Public Instruction yesterday released the scores for Wisconsin’s standardized tests from last year, and they are not good.  Not even 40 percent of kids are proficient in reading, writing, or math.  While math scores increased a tiny bit, reading and writing scores fell. 

To make matters worse, last year’s scores are well below the test scores from before the coronavirus shut down schools and sent kids to learn from home.  The state says there are “signs of recovery,” but education watchdogs say it’s tough to make that case when 60 percent of school kids in the state cannot read, write, or add at grade level.
