The NAEP Mathematics Assessment Framework was last revised in 2006. It is anticipated that the current update of the NAEP Mathematics Assessment Framework will be presented for approval at the National Assessment Governing Board quarterly meeting on August 1- 3, 2019. Public and private parties and organizations are invited to provide written comments and recommendations on the draft framework. This notice sets forth the review schedule and provides information for accessing additional materials that will be useful for this review.
