Stanford study: Lansing schools had some of the lowest test scores in the U.S. over the past decade

DATE:  January 17, 2022

Elementary and middle school students in the Lansing School District had some of the lowest standardized test scores in the country over the past decade and they lost ground every year compared with their peers at around the country.

What’s more, students in the district are learning at a rate of -36 percent, meaning they’re falling further behind the national average every year they’re in school. It’s the lowest rate in the state, and one of the lowest rates in the country.
