President Biden traveled to Philadelphia Friday, where he toured Luis Munoz Marin Elementary School and spoke with students, one of whom expressed gratitude for the return of in-person learning and physical interaction with her friends.
While students' reading comprehension improved slightly at the beginning of COVID-19, it declined into 2021. Students' math proficiency has been decreasing since 2020; NWEA found that"math achievement fell even further behind historical trends – the difference of 5 to 10 percentile points in the fall of 2020 widened to a difference of 8 to 12 percentile points in spring of 2021."
President Biden tours art after-school programs at Luis Munoz Marin Elementary School in Philadelphia March 11, 2022. The pandemic also exacerbated inequalities among minority students, who were"less likely to be learning in person and more likely to encounter obstacles in accessing instruction compared to White students," according to NWEA.
Biden's comments to the elementary school staff and children came after he delivered remarks at the House Democratic Caucus's annual issues conference in Philadelphia.Kyle Morris covers politics for Fox News.
