Nation's Report Card Shows Work Remains to Prepare All Students for Success
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) data released today show mixed results nationally, highlighting the need for redoubled efforts to implement student-centered policies that have proven effective.
“While results are mixed nationally, there are some bright spots among states that have implemented student-centered policies. These states have diligently maintained their focus on early reading, higher standards, accountability for schools and empowering parents with more public and private education options," said Patricia Levesque, CEO of the Foundation for Excellence in Education.
“It is also clear that we need to do more for all students, especially those in traditionally underserved areas including minority and low-income families. A strong education that prepares students for success in school and in careers remains the best way to lift families and our nation toward success,” said Levesque.
ExcelinEd will continue to analyze NAEP results and provide state analysis from our team of policy experts. Please visit our blog for the latest on NAEP and other education news. And you can sign up for future releases by going here.
