[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=anonymous]Massachusetts has been the top-scoring state in both 4th- and 8th-grade reading and math for more than 2 decades, ranking 1st in both adjusted and unadjusted scores in 8th-grade reading in 2024—meaning that it outscores other states both overall and when student demographics are taken into account.[/quote] Massachusetts does many things right. Another factor in their success is that most school districts are smaller, meaning that school district leadership cannot hide either failures or successes from the parents. Smaller district size is not a panacea but it helps with accountability. [/quote] Massachusetts is also very wealthy and small. Even the “rural” areas are fairly well off. [/quote]
