KIRO 7 obtained data on failing and non-complete grades across several school districts, which appeared to show that student engagement is improving, but there is a ways to go.

Tacoma parent Sandra Allen said she was feeling hopeful about this school year. It’s a very different emotion from how she felt in the spring of 2020, when she realized her daughter Hope wasn’t going back to school anytime soon.“I was very concerned about how she was going to be able to learn - not just the academics, but being out of school, the lack of social interaction during middle-school years,” Allen said. “I could see that there could be a lot of long-lasting negative impacts.

For English 1B, the failure/non-complete rate was 9% before the pandemic. In the 2020-2021 school year, it rose to 24%. Last year, it was around 16% when students went back to in-person learning. Hope Allen told KIRO 7 that year was tough in a different way. “I mean, we should be glad for that,” Au said. “I don’t think we should underestimate. It’s going to take years to shake this off.”

Looking at younger students, new nationwide numbers show a big impact on their learning. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, math scores had their first decrease in the history of the testing regimen, while reading scores among 9-year-old children saw their largest decrease in 30 years.
