Abstract: Almost all states have seen their average K-12 math proficiency rates on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) slide downward since 2013, with a pronounced dip in 2022. In addition, gaps across student, income, and percentile groups have widened. Drawing a page from their plans to improve literacy rates, leading states have been launching or expanding plans to bolster students' math learning. This policy update discusses how many state plans are seeking more coherence in the standards across grades so that learning builds more tightly on what came before. Several states have made changes to make advanced math available to more students through integrating math instruction in new ways.
