According to the Department of Education and Early Development, Alaska has been experiencing a trend of low school performance since prior to the pandemic and experienced a similar trend throughout the pandemic.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - New data from a spring 2022 assessment show that Alaska students are falling under grade-level proficiencies in math, science and English. These latest test scores continue to show a trend of low test scores across the state.
The study focused on students in third through ninth grade. According to the assessment, only 30% of students met grade-level expectations in English, and only 23% of students met math proficiency rates. The science assessment — administered only to fifth, eighth and tenth graders — showed only 38% of those students met the expectations.
Dr. Elizabeth Greninger, the assessment administrator for the Department of Education and Early Development, said this could be due to students lacking foundational education from earlier grades — specifically fourth through seventh grade.
