Danielle Gonzales, member of the National Assessment Governing Board and APS Board President joins Amanda to discuss the 2024 NAEP data that was released yesterday, January 29th. Known as the Nation’s Report Card, NAEP is the gold standard assessment that has measured U.S. student achievement since 1969. Every two years, fourth and eighth-grade students across America are assessed in reading, math, and science.

Amanda and Danielle discuss the reality of New Mexico ranking 50th in all four tested areas for the 2nd year in a row. They also share highlights from across the country and share more about how they think we can make improvements for New Mexico students.
