On the 2022 National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP), fourth-grade students, in Nevada, scored 6 points lower in math and 7 points lower in reading when compared to Nevada’s 2019 results. With the release of the 2024 results coming in the next few months, what amount of improvement would indicate to you that student achievement is heading in the right direction? And, why?

In 2023, the U.S. Department of Education identified three key areas of importance for improving student achievement: addressing chronic absenteeism, providing high-dosage tutoring, and providing summer and expanded/after school learning programs. Do you agree? What guidance would you offer school districts to consider in implementation? How could the SBOE play a role in monitoring the impact of these areas?

A nationwide study conducted by TNTP found that students received a passing grade on 71% of their assignments–with more than half of those students receiving an A or B. However, only 17% of those same students demonstrated grade-level mastery on their assignments. How can Nevada schools make sure that the grades students receive in the classroom demonstrate grade-level mastery of the material? How can you support this change from the position you are seeking?
