	Description:		The 2024 National Assessment of Educational Progress, known colloquially as the nation's report card, shows that reading scores dropped an average of two progress points for both 4th and 8th graders. But two states that are bucking this trend? Mississippi and Louisiana. How did two of the country's poorest states turn their literacy scores around in a matter of a few years? What can other states learn from those stories? Want to support 1A? Give to your local public radio station and subscribe to this podcast. Have questions? Connect with us.
