NAEP Long-Term Trend Assessment Results: Reading and Mathematics

"Since the 1970s, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) has monitored the academic performance of 9-, 13-, and 17-year-old students with what have become known as the long-term trend (LTT) assessments. Nearly five decades of results offer an extended view of student achievement in reading and mathematics. Results in this report are based on the most recent performance of nationally representative samples of 9-year-old and 13-year-old students. Typically, the LTT assessments in reading and mathematics are also administered at age 17 during March through May but because of the COVID-19 pandemic, this data collection was postponed.

Results at a Glance

The 2020 average scores in reading and mathematics for 13-year-olds were higher than the earliest assessments but declined since 2012. Scores for the lowest-performing students (at the 10th percentile) decreased from 2012 at both ages and subjects. See results for selected percentiles in reading and mathematics..."
