(FOX NEWS) – Speaking to Fox News Digital this week in a telephone interview about American students and literacy, former Secretary of Education William Bennett pulled no punches.
"Our nation is awash in bad educational news," he said. "While there is far too much of it, I believe what may be the very worst is the significant learning loss leading to precipitous drops in third-grade literacy."
Bennett said that ever since he served as Education Secretary during the Reagan administration, "I have been astonished by the consistent connection between third-grade literacy and any other measure of academic, social or economic success imaginable."
