The California Department of Education is delaying the release of test scores from last spring. This comes amid the expectation that results will show record declines, largely as a result of remote learning during the Covid pandemic.
, which did release its 2022 scores this month, the results are expected to show record declines, compared with pre-pandemic 2018-19. Research has shown that student learning was affected by remote learning followed by a chaotic year under Covid. Districts are getting historic levels of state and federal funding to bridge the gaps.
Waiting until later this year to release how students scored last spring will delay needed public discussions on how districts should respond to serious setbacks in learning including shifting funding immediately and next summer to accelerate learning. The timing is especially troubling for educators in early literacy, as the state copes with a reading crisis. Only 48.
Gilbert Magallon, spokesperson for Central Unified School District in Fresno, said comparing results is useful. “We value receiving data on similar districts and seek to learn information that may be beneficial as we strive to improve students’ academic outcomes.” Getting scores out as soon as permissible is not only sound policy but, civil liberties lawyers say, is required by the state law governing the release of public documents, the California Public Records Act.
