  • MCAS Test Scores Still Lagging Behind Part 2
    Sep 30 2025
    The latest MCAS test results were released, and it shows that Massachusetts students’ test scores are still below pre-pandemic levels. The results showed that high schoolers fared worse on the MCAS than grades 3-8. This was the first year that high schoolers took the test knowing that a passing MCAS score is no longer a graduation requirement…which may be playing a role in the results. What can be done to reverse course and get those tests scores back up? Should we be worried?


    *We invited Pedro Martinez, the Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, to join us. We are still awaiting an answer at the time of this publication*
