Growth data is crucial to understanding how COVID-19 impacted student progress and ensuring every student gets the support they need to get back on track for success. The suspension of 2020 assessments is a roadblock for measuring growth, but it’s not the end of the road: states can and should continue to measure student growth in 2021.

For more on growth data, check out these DQC resources:

Measuring Growth in 2021: What State Leaders Need to Know: This resource from DQC, the Alliance for Excellent Education and the Collaborative for Student Success outlines considerations for measuring growth when missing annual assessment data for the prior year, discusses uses of this data, and lays out actions states can take right now to measure growth in 2021.
Growth Data: It Matters, and It’s Complicated: Our brief explores the different ways states have committed to measuring student growth and what that means for education stakeholders and their understanding of student success.
