The Impact of COVID-19 on Data

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our ability to gauge Kindergarten readiness and the academic progress of our scholars. We are currently working with our educational partners to help them recover from setbacks caused by the pandemic, complete academic assessments, and accelerate learning. In the coming year, we will revisit our baselines and targets using the most complete data available.
