Ad Hoc Committee on NAEP Parent Engagement: Reaching Parents with NAEP Resources
National Assessment Governing Board
The National Assessment Governing Board, recognizing that National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) report releases were not conveying a sense of urgency, began an initiative in May 2010 to see what the Board could do to "make a difference" in fostering concern and action about the need to improve achievement and reduce achievement gaps, using NAEP data and resources. Toward this goal, the Governing Board established the Ad Hoc Committee on NAEP Parent Engagement. The Committee's task was to develop recommendations on ways to reach parents with NAEP information. This report documents the work of the Ad Hoc Committee and presents its recommendations. (Contains 6 footnotes.)
