National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)

The NCES collects and presents tools for analyzing the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). The NAEP State Profiles page features “Snapshot Reports” that include state-level data for the percent of fourth- and eighth-grade students designated as “proficient” or “advanced” in reading, disaggregated by participation in the NSLP. These state-level estimates are based on representative samples, and data are released for odd-numbered years.
