Welcome to Education Week’s Weekly News Quiz! Test your knowledge on the latest news and trends in education.

Nice work last week, everyone! Most of you nailed the policy and research-based questions—95% correctly identified why students struggle in Algebra 1, and 77% understood the confusion around “illegal DEI” guidance.

But one question caught many of you by surprise: only 17% knew the top classroom distraction was other students—not cellphones (which, let’s be honest, many of us would’ve guessed too).

Think you can beat last week’s stats? Let’s dive into this week’s quiz.
