In today’s edition of the Heartland Daily Podcast, we listen in as Lennie Jarratt, project manager for education at The Heartland Institute, joins the Morning News Watch Radio Show to talk about the nation’s falling scores on the NAEP test – more commonly referred to as the Nation’s Report Card.
Jarratt explains how the test scores are some of the first seen during the Common Core era. While it may be too early to lay all of the blame on Common Core, Jarratt points to a study that shows that states which embraced Common Core had scores that fell the fastest.
