The restricted-use datasets for the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) High School Transcript Study (HSTS) 2019 include ASCII-formatted data files, record layouts, SAS- and SPSS-formatted databases, codebooks, and SAS and SPSS programs. The NAEP High School Transcript Study analyzes transcripts from a national sample of U.S. public and private school graduates who also took the 2019 NAEP 12th grade assessments in mathematics and science. The study provides valuable information about coursetaking patterns disaggregated by demographic characteristics and the relationship between NAEP scale scores and various graduate characteristics.

This report presents the results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) long-term trend assessments in reading and mathematics administered during the 2022–23 school year to a nationally representative sample of 13-year-old students. Long-term trend assessments were first administered in the early 1970s; results are available for 14 prior reading assessments dating back to 1971 and 13 prior mathematics assessments dating back to 1973. This highlights report focuses on 2023 results compared to the previous long-term trend assessment in the 2019-20 school year. This report provides trend results in terms of average scale scores and scores for lower-, middle-, and higher-performing students at five selected percentiles. In addition to overall and percentile scores, results are reported by race/ethnicity, gender, type of school, and other demographic groups. In addition, the report provides results from the student survey questionnaire about student absenteeism, reading habits, and mathematics course taking.

This report describes selected results from the 2021 NAEP School and Teacher Questionnaire Special Study conducted in March and April 2021. Results are based on a survey sample consisting of schools and teachers that serve fourth- and eighth-grade students, and are limited to states/jurisdictions and districts that agreed to participate in the study and met reporting standards. The report provides insight into some of the efforts schools and teachers made during a period of widespread academic disruption, including what support schools provided for distance learning; how schools and teachers supported students to address gaps in learning that may have occurred because of school closures; and how confident teachers were in facing the challenges of distance learning.

This report describes selected results from the age 9 2022 long-term trend (LTT) reading and mathematics assessments. The report focuses on the comparison of a nationally representative sample of age 9 students who took the assessments in the winter of the 2019-2020 school year with those who took the assessments in the winter of 2021-2022 school year. The report provides insight into the performance of age 9 students in reading and mathematics, as well as data from students and school administrators about the widespread disruptions in learning that occurred during the 2020−2021 and 2021−2022 school years. In addition, the report provides links to data tables comparing 2022 performance in LTT reading and mathematics across all administrations dating back to the early 1970s.

The National Indian Education Study (NIES) is a special study funded by the Office of Indian Education (OIE). The study includes oversampling of American Indian / Alaska Native (AI/AN) students in public schools and Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) Schools. The study design includes students taking the 2019 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) operational assessment followed by a short survey questionnaire specific to AI/AN students about the role of AI/AN culture in students' lives and school experiences. Additionally, for teachers of the sampled AI/AN students there are surveys that collect information about teachers' backgrounds and instructional practices as they relate to the education of AI/AN students. (Note there also is a school administrator survey, however those data are unrelated to this data product.)

For both the student and teacher surveys, all of the questions were multiple choice, but a space was provided at the end of the survey for respondents to write in comments. There are two such write-in questions for each of the student and teacher surveys. The responses for these write-in questions are the purpose of this data product.
