The Iowa Department of Education Friday released new spring 2024 assessment results from the Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress for students in grades 3-11.
State-level results from the spring 2024 assessment show student achievement reaching or exceeding pre-pandemic levels across most grade levels in both English language arts and mathematics.
However, significant proficiency gaps remain among students with disabilities and students who are English language learners in both English language arts and mathematics.
As part of statewide efforts to improve student proficiency, and for the first time in over 10-years, the Iowa State Board of Education adopted new academic standards for mathematics in April and new academic standards in English language arts in June.
