The results of the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress have just been released and the news is not good. National trends are mostly flat, and as Mike Petrilli notes, it’s now been almost a decade since we’ve seen strong growth in either reading or math, with the slight exception of eighth grade reading. Mike Petrilli joins Marty West to take a close look at the results and to consider what lessons we can draw from them. Education Next has published a series of blog entries analyzing the 2017 NAEP results here: http://educationnext.org/interpreting-2017-naep-reading-math-results/
