The Nation's Report Card Mathematics 2011 State Snapshot Report. Texas. Grade 4, Public Schools
National Center for Education Statistics
Each state and jurisdiction that participated in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 2011 mathematics assessment receives a one-page snapshot report that presents key findings and trends in a condensed format. Overall results, achievement level percentages and average score results, comparison of the average score in 2011 to other states/jurisdictions, average scores for state/jurisdiction and nation (public), results for student groups in 2011, and score gaps for student groups are included. In 2011, the average score of fourth-grade students in Texas was 241. This was not significantly different from the average score of 240 for public school students in the nation. The average score for students in Texas in 2011 (241) was not significantly different from their average score in 2009 (240) and was higher than their average score in 1992 (218). In 2011, the score gap between students in Texas at the 75th percentile and students at the 25th percentile was 34 points. This performance gap was narrower than that of 1992 (40 points). The percentage of students in Texas who performed at or above the NAEP "Proficient" level was 39 percent in 2011. This percentage was not significantly different from that in 2009 (38 percent) and was greater than that in 1992 (15 percent). The percentage of students in Texas who performed at or above the NAEP "Basic" level was 85 percent in 2011. This percentage was not significantly different from that in 2009 (85 percent) and was greater than that in 1992 (56 percent). [For the main report, "The Nation's Report Card: Mathematics 2011.
