The stagnation of the 12th-grade NAEP results should be a “wake-up” call to the nation that students may not be getting the general skills they need by the time they graduate high school, said Alberto Carvalho, superintendent of Miami-Dade County Public Schools in Miami, Florida, who participated in an Oct. 28 virtual panel marking the release of the results.
Carvalho also voiced concern about the pandemic’s impact on student achievement.
