[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Digging into the data it appears most of the drop in the average comes from bottom groups. Struggling students are doing worse. Other groups didn’t change much. Probably due to poverty, increasing SpEd and ESL populations combined with less reading at home due to technology use.[/quote] Yes, if you look more closely at the data, high scoring students remain high while low scoring students are getting worse. But that doesn't tell the whole story. Other testing and information from teachers, schools, and others show that even the best students today have low reading stamina and a smaller knowledge base.
