Is the joke that 48 out of 50 is a bigger number than 15 (or whatever they are) so they think they’re higher up? Or was there some news report I missed about Alabama doing really well on standardized tests?
I started looking at https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/data/ and verified that Alabama beat both caly and ny at the grade 4 level in math, but not reading, in grade 8 they beat Cali in math. Ny didn’t have a valid result? Thru didn’t beat in reading…then discovered that this was some kind of aggregate data ending in 2022.
Then I realized I don’t care enough to keep going, wrote this, and now I’m going to go for a walk.
Lol I had almost the exact same experience after I left that comment. I fell into a rabbit hole trying to find the answer and had an “oh, I don’t actually care about this” moment
