Students experienced setbacks during the pandemic but for the first time test results are showing just how much learning has been lost. Standardized test results show an overall drop in learning, especially in some of New York City's poorest areas.

Deputy Chancellor Quintana said the biggest shift in outcomes happens in the classroom not in after school programs, so that's where their focusing on the basics, like core curriculum. She also said they're moving around what's called literacy coaches to the areas that need them most. Some teachers said that's what they've been doing. They believe the district should focus on shifting dollars and more resources to vulnerable communities that need it most.
