[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arizona is the worst ranked state in the nation for education.  Not the model the rest of the US should be looking to. https://www.12news.com/article/news/education/arizona-ranks-51st-education-survey-worst-state-country-public-education/75-b9de7076-a84b-4cc1-b439-7b56b34338ff#:~:text=A%20new%20survey%20rates%20Arizona,the%20non%2Dpartisan%20Consumer%20Affairs.[/quote]

When you correct for student demographics, Arizona is 13th.  [/quote]

Florida, Texas and Mississippi 1-2-3.  Arizona middle of the pack.  Interesting.[/quote]

Even unadjusted Mississippi is now outscoring Virgina and Maryland. Mississippi threw out balanced literacy / Lucy Calkins years ago and mandated phonics/science of reading. Kids who aren't on grade level are retained and given more help.  Other programs they implemented include:  free, full-day pre-K programs that promote reading readiness; universal screening for literacy three times a year for students in kindergarten through 3rd grade; individual reading plans (IRPs) for students whose screening results are below grade level; and formal methods for parents to engage in those IRPs.[/quote]
