After the COVID-19 pandemic, American students continued to struggle with reading and math, as highlighted by the National Assessment of Educational Progress. The situation is dire, with many attributing the decline to prolonged school closures influenced by teachers' unions. However, Louisiana offers hope, having improved from 49th to 32nd in national rankings, recovering and exceeding pre-pandemic reading scores. Key to their success has been the implementation of Act 108, which mandates teachers in early grades to undergo training in the 'science of reading,' emphasizing effective, research-backed instructional methods.
Louisiana's improvement in education results has been attributed to its focus on the 'science of reading' and a commitment to basic educational principles.
The situation in American education has been worsening for years, exacerbated by the pandemic, revealing the need for drastic reforms in teaching methods.
