A story circulating today claims a newly released state report card with fifty-three percent reading proficiency — that figure, and the praise quoted with it, are a year old; the real final twenty twenty-five twenty-six data have not posted yet, the preliminary reading drop is steepest in third and fifth grade, the city's own screeners point the other way, and the growth files that reached educators last week measure something proficiency cannot. Sources: New York State Education Department, State Education Department Releases Preliminary Data on English Language Arts, Mathematics and Science State Exams (2026 release; twenty twenty-five twenty-six preliminary proficiency: English language arts forty-eight percent, math fifty-seven percent, science forty-seven percent; final public release anticipated for early November), http://www.nysed.gov/news/2026/state-education-department-releases-preliminary-data-english-language-arts-mathematics-and ; New York State Education Department, 2025 preliminary release (twenty twenty-four twenty-five proficiency: English language arts fifty-three percent, math fifty-five percent, science forty-four percent), https://www.nysed.gov/news/2025/state-education-department-releases-preliminary-data-english-language-arts-mathematics-and ; New York City Public Schools, New York City Public Schools Releases Citywide Results for State Assessment (2026; grade-by-grade city tables for state test and screener results), https://www.schools.nyc.gov/about-us/news/announcements/contentdetails/2026/08/07/new-york-city-public-schools-releases-citywide-results-for-state-assessment ; EdTrust-New York, EdTrust-New York Calls for Independent Audit of State ELA Assessments Following Significant Year-Over-Year Fluctuations (August 6, 2026), https://newyork.edtrust.org/edtrust-new-york-calls-for-independent-audit-of-state-ela-assessments-following-significant-year-over-year-fluctuations/ ; New York State Education Department, Delivery of 2025-2026 School Year Student Growth Results and Distribution of File Layouts (memo, October 22, 2026; growth files and SIRS 112 expected on or around November 2, 2026), https://www.nysed.gov/sites/default/files/programs/accountability/2025-26-growth-results-release.pdf ; Fox News Digital story syndicated via Doctors Find (published November 9, 2026) claiming a newly released report card — to verify, search Fox News Digital for the Success Academy report card story and compare its fifty-three percent English language arts figure and its quoted improvement language against the two NYSED releases above.
