Kuhfeld etRal. used test scores from 5.4 million students between grades 3 and 8 to measure achievement differences in math and reading from before the pandemic to Fall 2020 and Fall 2021. They found that students' math scores dropped more than their reading scores compared to Fall 2019. The gaps were significantly larger for students from low-socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds and underrepresented minorities[10].This aligns with reports from the early pandemic that showed that the effects of school closures could exacerbate achievement gaps
