An education consultant said on Sunday that a crisis is brewing in New York public schools where the number of eighth graders failing math exams has tripled since the state started administering Common Core tests.
The number of students who failed eighth grade math exams went from 14,000 in 2012 to 44,483 most recently.
“I think you have a storm warning,” David Rubel, a consultant for city parochial schools told the New York Post. “That’s a huge number of kids not on track to graduate.”
