The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee is scheduled to hold a hearing on September 18 to address concerns regarding the current state of K-12 education in the United States. The session will take place at 10:00 AM ET in room 430 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building.
Recent data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) indicate that high school seniors are graduating with historically low scores in both math and reading. This has raised concerns among lawmakers and educators about academic achievement and preparedness as students leave high school.
The upcoming hearing aims to examine these issues and discuss potential solutions. Members of the press interested in attending are asked to RSVP through their respective press galleries. The event will also be available for live viewing online.
