This was a very interesting article to read. This article was about how children in fourth and eighth grade are showing some slight improvements in math yet how far the children are from achieving the no child left behind status.
Even though there were improvements in math, which is great, by 2014 all the children were suppose to be at the no child left behind status. The article states not in a single group of academics is there more children above mastery then below on the state testing.
This is alarming because in 2 years the no child left behind stated that the children were going to be where they need to be academically yet more then half the children in each subject are below the mastery level. This shows that the United States still has such a long way to go in just 2 years.
Its great that the children are improving but they are improving at such a slow rate that they are most likely not going to be at the level they should in 2 years.
I really hope this goes through! Great article!
