National Assessment of Educational Progress
Overview
- Overview
-
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is a national assessment program that reports what students know and can do in selected subjects. Participating schools administer assessments to sampled students. Results describe performance and trends for the nation, states, and participating districts. It does not provide individual student grades.
Sampling and reporting populations determine how results can be interpreted. District leaders use NAEP for broader comparisons, while local student records support participation logistics. Published aggregates describe a defined population and time period. Data leaders retain those definitions when comparing results with current local operational records.

A subject-specific content framework, developed by the National Assessment Governing Board, provides the theoretical basis for each assessment, and describes the types of questions that should be included, and how they should be designed and scored. Frameworks describe a range of content and thinking skills needed by students to deal with the complex issues they encounter inside and outside their classrooms.
The NAEP framework development process ensures that they are appropriate for current educational requirements. Because the assessments must remain flexible to mirror changes in educational objectives and curricula, they must be forward-looking and responsive, balancing current teaching practices with research findings. Explore frameworks for all the subjects NAEP assesses.
