U.S. fourth graders saw their math scores drop steeply between 2019 and 2023 on a key international test even as more than a dozen other countries saw their scores improve. Scores dropped even more steeply for American eighth graders, a grade where only three countries saw increases.
The tests were done during COVID, and they’re only a few percentage points different. This article is trying to shit on the US because (checks notes) other countries have improved their education programs. Erica Meltzer shame on you.
