What specific strategies implemented by the Diocese of Brooklyn have led to a significant improvement in student reading and math proficiency, contrasting with the national decline?

In contrast to a nationwide decline in reading proficiency, the Diocese of Brooklyn's Catholic schools have achieved a 70% proficiency rate in English and math among eighth graders. This success is attributed to new instructional strategies, including specialized coaching for teachers and tailored instruction based on individual student needs. One student, Liam Seminara, exemplifies this improvement, progressing from struggling to testing above grade level.
