While MCAS scores have stopped dropping, there’s still a “lot of ground to make up” before they regain their pre-pandemic levels, according to Rob Curtin, head of assessment and accountability at the state’s Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
from the spring 2023 MCAS exams show that across the state, students’ scores are either flat or slowly climbing.
During a conference call with reporters Monday, state education commissioner Jeff Riley said “the achievement slide caused by the pandemic has halted.” Since it was first administered in 1998, the assessments have been Massachusetts’ principal standardized window into learning progress — and learning loss — inside the state’s publicly-funded schools.
In these latest results, that share has rebounded to 41%, meaning that the pandemic drop in math scores has shrunk by half — or eight percentage points — in just two years. On the other hand, there are 101 student populations — 46 in public school districts and 55 at charter schools — that remain at least 20 points behind their 2019 rates of scores “meeting or exceeding expectations.”on standardized tests, especially when compared to other urban districts.In 2023, 11% of tenth-grade students statewide scored “not meeting expectations” in English and science.
