Title of Collection: National
Assessment of Educational Progress
(NAEP) 2017–2019.
OMB Control Number: 1850–NEW
(previously 1850–0790).
Type of Review: A new information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 816,263.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 397,894.
Abstract: This information collection
is a revision to information collection
1850–0790; however, the Department is
requesting a new OMB control number
in place of the old number.
The National Assessment of
Educational Progress (NAEP),
conducted by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), is a
federally authorized survey of student
achievement at grades 4, 8, and 12 in
various subject areas, such as
mathematics, reading, writing, science,
U.S. history, civics, geography,
economics, technology and engineering
literacy (TEL), and the arts. The
National Assessment of Educational
Progress Authorization Act (Public Law
107–279 Title III, section 303) requires
the assessment to collect data on
specified student groups and
characteristics, including information
organized by race/ethnicity, gender,
socio-economic status, disability, and
limited English proficiency. It requires
fair and accurate presentation of
achievement data and permits the
collection of background, noncognitive,
or descriptive information that is related
to academic achievement and aids in
fair reporting of results. The intent of
the law is to provide representative
sample data on student achievement for
the nation, the states, and
subpopulations of students and to
monitor progress over time. The nature
of NAEP is that burden alternates from
a relatively low burden in national-level
administration years to a substantial
burden increase in state-level

administration years when the sample
has to allow for estimates for individual
states and some of the large urban
districts. This submission requests
OMB’s approval for main NAEP
assessments in 2017, 2018, and 2019,
including operational, pilot, and special
studies. The NAEP results will be
reported to the public through the
Nation’s Report Card as well as other
online NAEP tools.
