Learning loss during the pandemic could cost students $70,000 in earnings over a lifetime

Learning loss could shave $70,000 off the lifetime earnings of children who were in school during the pandemic, according to a new study by a Stanford economist.

The sobering forecast is based on an analysis of the sharp declines in the scores of eighth-graders on national math tests taken between 2019 and 2022.

GOPChairwoman

The party that vilifies Dr Fauci & glorifies Kyle Rittenhouse.

GOPChairwoman We all agree. The COVID pandemic has been a real bitch.

that there is a vacuum when it comes to leadership. Look who's raising our kids! Dems who are taking away identity, excusing bad behavior, dividing the races, putting illegals over the Americans that need help first and breaking our country for the sake of votes.

GOPChairwoman So Ronna, you agreed to help Trump secure fake electors. It only took you two years to tell the truth. CorruptGOP

OMG people will be even more underpaid

GOPChairwoman

GOPChairwoman Yep! Damn Donald J Trump!

GOPChairwoman The learning loss is real but so is the mindshare loss of American values in future generations. These kids are being indoctrinated by the woke leftist rot that is in education k20 and if we don't take serious steps we will lose our country and the American dream to socialism.

The loss to the U.S. economy from the school lockdowns forced by Covid-19 could exceed $28 trillion.

GOPChairwoman remind us which president neglected the pandemic...

Nice job Democrats

I personally think COVID did hurt many kids who did not have time to adjust to remote learning and that hurt them.

I guess that's what Americans should expect when we put someone totally incapable of governing or handling a crisis in the WH. Only interested in promoting his self interest.

GOPChairwoman That’s why governors need to fund education in their states , especially red governors.

GOPChairwoman Bullshit. You can quote me.

GOPChairwoman Nah the bar will just become lower in lots of fields. Heart surgery anyone?!

GOPChairwoman For the first time in human history, all of human knowledge is available to anyone, anywhere in the palm of their hands. Yet most use this unprecedented resource for social media and time wasting. The pandemic was a perfect opportunity to increase reading and education.

GOPChairwoman They don't stand a chance of having anything

Let’s pull reparations from the “Public Health Expert” budget. No point in continuing to employ people who will never be listened to again.

How many of those in charge either have no kids (in school) or had the means to hire tutors/ send them to (open) private schools or homeschool?

In a lifetime? It’s way worse than that

Oh dear God... I hope that the diseases that cause pandemics and crises in this world can be overcome and disappear quickly so that they don't threaten the future of the people, especially the younger generation.

Who could have seen this coming?

If they don't use IT technology?

And to think Democrats would still have schools closed if they had their way. They knew what the setbacks would be and had the audacity to say they’re relieving college loan debt.
