In contrast, college-level math readiness in LakeVille Community School District the year before was 16.4%.
LakeVille Community School District ranked second lowest in college readiness for math this year, compared to other districts in Genesee County. In the previous year, it was ranked fifth lowest.
Overall, students in Michigan are still performing below pre-pandemic levels. According to the test results, their scores are on average 4.5% lower than the pre-pandemic levels.
A recent study in the state suggested this could be caused by remote schooling. Students who learned remotely experienced more learning loss compared to those who attended in-person classes during the pandemic.
"This is hurting kids in ways we can't even imagine, and not just academically," Senator Thomas Albert said during his time as the House Appropriations Chairman. "The disruption of sports and other extracurricular activities also takes a major toll. It's going to take years for some of these students to recover academically."
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer was criticized for trying to address these academic failures by using more tutors in the public school system.
"Relying only on the system that caused academic and mental health setbacks is not looking out for the best interest of children," Jamie A. Hope wrote in the Michigan Capitol Confidential.
Due to the suspension of state assessments, SAT data for the 2019-20 academic year are not available.
