Measures of Academic Progress testing results obtained by WDRB News in response to an open records request show that 45% and 36% of JCPS students tested at grade-level in reading and math, respectively, in the second round of diagnostic testing in the 2021-22 school year.
Records obtained by WDRB News show 15.3% of JCPS students failed at least one class in the first semester of the 2021-22 school year, the first in which the district offered in-person learning five days a week since the COVID-19 pandemic began.
The results, provided by JCPS in response to an open records request, give the district its first look at where current students are in their learning after the COVID-19 pandemic upended the previous two school years.
JCPS said it has enough Chromebooks to ensure every student -- not just every household -- has a device before school resumes.
