To prepare for the assessment:
Please place the NAEP assessment date on your school calendar
Designate a school coordinator to serve as the liaison for all NAEP activities in your school
Forward this message and attachments to your selected NAEP School Coordinator
The school coordinator should
Know how to collect student information, such as birth dates, demographic information, and if any students have withdrawn;
Be comfortable using a computer since all assessment preparation activities will be completed online; and
Be familiar with how students participate in statewide assessments.
The typical assessment takes two hours or less to complete.
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the largest nationally representative assessment of what our nation's students know and can do in subjects such as the arts, mathematics, reading, and writing. The results of NAEP are released as The Nation's Report Card.
