Reading and math gains in 2020-2021 were diminished compared to pre-pandemic trends, especially in the latter half of the year and students ended the year with lower achievement compared to a typical year, with larger declines relative to historical trends in math than in reading. The results showed that, on average, students across most grades made reading and math gains in 2020-21, but that students’ outcomes during the pandemic-affected school year were lower across multiple dimensions. New NWEA research aims to provide insight to inform leaders working to support recovery for all students: using data from 5.5 million students in grades 3-8 who took MAP Growth assessments in reading and math, this brief examines how gains across the 2020-21 school year and student achievement in spring 2021 compare to pre-pandemic trends. To what extent did COVID-19 disruptions affect student achievement in the 2020-2021 school year, and which students have been most affected? As school districts plan for post-pandemic recovery, these are critical questions.
