Abstract: In our report, "Learning during COVID-19: Initial findings on students' reading and math achievement and growth," we examine how school shutdowns impacted student achievement at the start of the 2020-21 school year. Using data from schools all over the country, we've built these visualizations to explore three key questions: (1) How have students performed this fall compared to a typical school year?; (2) How has student growth changed since school buildings closed in March 2020?; and (3) How does observed student achievement in fall 2020 compare to NWEA's projections?
