The Tara Show

This segment focuses on the latest results from the SC READY standardized tests, revealing a sharp contrast in student performance. While reading scores have reached a new all-time high, with 60% of students now reading at grade level, math proficiency remains a significant problem, with less than half of students meeting expectations. The host attributes the improvement in reading to the new phonics-focused LETRS program, and highlights the launch of the Palmetto Math Project as a necessary effort to address the lagging math scores. The segment also includes brief commentary on other topics, including a Supreme Court ruling regarding parental rights in education, and immigration enforcement in major U.S. cities.
