Community colleges must recommit to reforming remedial education to ensure K12 students affected by pandemic-borne learning loss won't crash out of the postsecondary track, declares a new report from FutureEd at Georgetown. “What I’m hearing from faculty is that they are faced with students who are less prepared than they have ever been in their history of teaching,” said J.K.
