About this listen
Schools are back but they are still dealing with the setbacks and learning loss all due to the pandemic. Recently we saw Department of Education data showing 9-year-olds are behind in reading and math, the sharpest decline we’ve seen since 1990. The learning loss was generally worse in districts that kept classes remote longer. To combat this, states are spending billions on tutoring, expanded summer school, and more individual attention for students. Scott Calvert, reporter at the WSJ, joins us for more on what schools are doing and how they are tracking progress.
