Our prior researchi, ii, iii shows that the impact of the pandemic on student achievement steadily accumulated over the course of the 2020–21 school year and hit the low point in spring of 2021 (i. e. , this is the term when we generally observed the largest magnitude of gaps between test scores during the pandemic relative to historical trends) . Over the course of the 2021–22 school year, achievement gains started to mirror prepandemic trends, and because of this rebounding,1 the gap between midpandemic achievement relative to a typical year started to narrow, albeit modestly. iii Here, we examine whether we continue to see signs of improvement at the start of the 2022–23 school year and how learning patterns across the summer of 2022 contribute to continued rebounding. To do this, we examine test score data from nearly 7 million students in grades 3–8 who took MAP® Growth™ assessments in reading and math in approximately 25,000 public schools between 2020–21 and fall 2022 (“COVID sample”) and compared these data to a roughly comparable sample of students who tested between 2017–18 and fall 2019 (“preCOVID sample”) .  \nStudents lost less ground in summer 2022 compared to historical patterns  \nDuring the summer months, students typically tend to lose some of the gains they make during the school year (i. e. ,“summer slide” phenomenoniv, v) . To understand the magnitude of slide during summer 2022 relative to typical trends, we calculated change in test scores between spring 2022 and fall 2022 and compared this to the change in test scores in the prepandemic summer of 2019.2 Figure 1 depicts the change in scores in reading and math over these two summers (expressed in standard deviation units) separately for elementary and middle school students. Although we found that scores did decline on average during summer 2022, Figure 1 shows that declines were smaller than a typical summer (i. e. , the darker bars are shorter than the lighter bars) . Trends in both years are consistent with prior research that shows summer slide is typically more extreme in math than reading and in younger students compared to older students.vii  \n¹ We define rebounding as patterns of achievement gains that mirror or exceed prepandemic trends .“Rebounding” is not  \ninterchangeable with \"recovery\"; rather, the former describes progress toward the latter. We use the term achievement  \ngap to indicate the difference between the COVID and pre-COVID samples in a grade level (reported here as standardized  \ndifferences in average test scores) .  \n2 We estimated the rates of summer learning using a growth model that accounts for time before/after testing in the spring  \nand fall. See the technical appendixvi for more details on the model.  \nCENTER FOR SCHOOL AND STUDENT PROGRESS Achievement at the start of the 2022–2023 school year | 2  \nFigure 1: Test score declines during the summer in 2019 and 2022 for reading (left panel) and math (right panel) separately by grade level  \nNote.
