State Test Score Trends through 2008-09, Part 1: Rising Scores on State Tests and NAEP. Wisconsin
Center on Education Policy
This paper profiles Wisconsin's test score trends through 2008-09. Between 2005 and 2009, the percentages of students reaching the proficient level on the state test and the basic level on NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) increased in math at grades 4 and 8 and in reading at grade 8. In grade 4 reading, the percentage scoring proficient on the state test decreased very slightly (less than 1 percentage point) and the percentage scoring basic on NAEP showed no change. Average annual gains in math were larger on the state test than on NAEP at grades 4 and 8. In grade 8 reading, however, average annual gains were larger on NAEP than on the state test. Wisconsin did not provide average (mean) score data for 2005. (Contains 1 footnote.)
