Did you Know?
Almost 9 in 10 parents believe their child is at or above grade level* in reading and math. But only 30% of 8th graders nationally demonstrate proficiency or above in math and reading**.
Given grade level standards are inconsistent across states, NAEP "proficiency/above" offers a national standard representing "solid academic performance for the given grade level" which is what we aspire our students to be able to do.
