But new data from Cato\u2019s Public Schooling Battle Map<\/a> suggest things might be cooling off.<\/p>\n The first chart below shows the number of conflicts we have tracked annually since 2012, when our collection became more regular. There is a clear leap in battles in 2021, after lulls in a generally upward trend between 2012 to 2018. We reached new records in 2021, 2022, and 2023. But the 2024 bar\u2014a projection for the entire year based on our current pace\u2014is well below 2023. Just 329 conflicts, compared to 540 a year earlier.<\/p>\n
