Monday, May 14th, 2012 -- 10:24 AM
-Overall results for the 2011 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) science assessment showed Wisconsin students exceeding national average results by eight scale score points.'Wisconsin's' average scale score of 159 was up two points from 2009, but the results between the two years are not statistically different. The national average scale score was 151, also up two points from 2009.
?'Wisconsin's' achievement was among the top third of states for the 2011 NAEP science assessment,? said State Superintendent Tony Evers. ?Though our students maintained their achievement levels on this assessment, we must see more progress for all students and close the gaps among students.?
