The Nation's Report Card: Reading 2009 Trial Urban District Assessment (TUDA) describes results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in reading for public schools in 18 selected urban districts compared with results from public schools in the nation and large cities nationally (cities with populations of 250,000 or more).
Representative samples of between 900 and 2,400 fourth-graders and between 800 and 2,100 eighth-graders were assessed in each of the 18 urban districts that participated in the 2009 assessment. Eleven of the districts also participated in the 2007 and 2005 assessments and 10 participated in 2003. Results from the 2009 TUDA report in reading include:
* In comparison to 2007, scores improved in four districts at grade 4 and in two districts at grade 8. When compared to 2003, scores at grade 4 were higher in seven out of ten districts, and in four out of ten districts at grade 8.
* In 2009, fourth-graders in six districts recorded higher scores than fourth-graders in large cities nationally. Among those six districts, Black students in four districts scored higher than Black students in large cities nationally, and Hispanic students in five districts scored higher than Hispanic students in large cities nationally.
* Five districts at grade 8 had higher scores than large cities nationally in 2009. Within those five districts, Black students in two districts scored higher than Black students in large cities nationally, and Hispanic students in three districts scored higher than Hispanic students in large cities nationally.
NAEP is administered by the National Center for Education Statistics at the Institute of Education Sciences.
