Blame Democrats and union bosses for failing school report card
Fox News
The Nation's Report Card showed schools recorded the steepest drop in math scores ever recorded, and Democrats are to blame.
Republican Jim Banks represents Indiana's Third District in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is a veteran of the war in Afghanistan and a member of the House Armed Services Committee.
The 2022 National Assessment of Educational Progress recently found that schools nationwide recorded the steepest drop in math scores ever recorded in a single year. The same report found that nearly three decades of progress in reading proficiency has been lost.
Fourth graders recorded the lowest average score collectively in reading. Average math scores for eighth graders have dropped a whole eight points since 2019. Nearly four in ten eighth graders now test below basic achievement levels in math.
