Important data from @NAEP_NCES: less than 1/3 of WA students are scoring at/above proficient (read: at grade-level) in 4th grade reading and 8th grade math. Scores have been declining for years, foreshadowing real long-term consequences for our students and state.

The projected credential attainment rate for the WA HS class of 2021 is 3 percentage pts lower than the class of 2019. Why the drop? The primary driver is a steep decline in postsecondary enrollment.
