Reading @ChadAldeman's early analysis of likely pandemic impacts on kids' outcomes in 2020 helped me understand the depth and breadth of the crisis we adults helped create. I wish he had been wrong. He was right. I see this in @bellwetherorg's work and even with my own kids.

[Chad Aldeman @ChadAldeman]

{new} What I got right and wrong about learning losses, disengagement from school and income disparities in which kids got hurt the most.

I have turned into that adult who roots *against* snow days.

By popular request (@karenvaites), here is the 2024 NAEP 4th grade reading proficiency rates for economically disadvantaged students across all states

[Kathleen Porter-Magee @kportermagee]

The NAEP 4th grade math scores increased--but it seems ONLY because high performers did better.

Students in the bottom two quintiles showed no significant change after the devastating losses they experienced post-pandemic.

A must-read: "But all that positive news can’t mask the reality of what the pandemic did to our children. A generation of Americans is growing up with academic scars that will last a lifetime. And we’re all just letting it happen." @bellwetherorg @MichaelPetrilli

[Michael Petrilli @MichaelPetrilli]

Get ready for more bad news from NAEP 2024 https://t.co/rLJ7Klhgv9

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

@Melissa_A_SM @msaundersTO For this I understand.

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

@Melissa_A_SM Wow. Gorgeous!

[Liz Cohen @lizcohen12]

This demands urgency: "18% of 8th graders and 13% of 4th graders failed to hit the lowest achievement threshold. The proportions of ultra-low-performers were, respectively, twice and three times higher than they were in 2011."

@erastourticketz So interested! I have kiddos who are Swifties and so eager to attend.

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

@erastourticketz I have 2 kiddos who would be beyond thrilled for us to go. They haven't been to any concerts (Taylor Swift or otherwise).

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

@erastourticketz So interested! I have kids who are so interested to attend.

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

@Melissa_A_SM Nothing without you!

[Rebecca G Goldberg @rggoldberg]

A bit of personal news, as they say. I am delighted that the @bellwetherorg Board of Directors selected me to lead in this next phase of impact. There are many challenges (and opportunities!) facing learners. We have an extraordinary team to meet the moment. Let’s get to work!

[Bellwether @bellwetherorg]

[Charter School Growth Fund @CharterGrowth]

“Once the site of an Indian boarding school, where the federal government attempted to strip children of their tribal identity, the @NACASchool now offers the opposite: a public education designed to affirm and draw from each student’s traditional culture and language.”

Check out this feature story on NACA to learn how they have been reimagining education for Indigenous youth:

@temim Me too! I can’t find any short-sleeved shirts. I’m sure we were both so strategic that we won’t find them until like October.
