      it stole 4 years for college and hs students. Ive read some reviews about certain schools in my area, before the lockdowns/protocols were lifted they were all unsatisfactory lack of experience, dint learn anything and job search, while the school was having trouble financially and raising TUITION all across the board. the ones that escaped from my local state uni, went to a UC school instead and had far better success, because that school likely had better resources for students undergrad experience and post-undergrad job search. some people started college around 2019-2020, they still lost the 4 years because the schools/instructors got lazy and put all thier lectures online instead of going to lecture in class even after they lifted lockdowns.

      Would like to see the data disaggregated by grade. If this is the culprit, then we’ll see a rebound as kids away from covid appear.

      But I believe (based on data from, say, other countries) that we don’t see this. Reading scores have been tanking for some other reason.
