8th Grades Students will be taking the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) on Tuesday, March 17
2026.

Your child will/may take a mathematics or reading assessment. In addition to subject-area questions, students voluntarily complete NAEP survey questions. These questions provide valuable information about participating students’ educational experiences and opportunities to learn both in and outside of the classroom. More information about NAEP survey questions is available at https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/parents under the section “Survey Questionnaires & Your Student: What You Need to Know.”

The assessment takes about 120 minutes for most students, which includes transition time, directions, and completion of survey questions.

There is no need to study in preparation for NAEP, but please encourage your child to do their best, get a good night sleep, eat a well-balanced breakfast, and arrive to school on time.

Please contact Aaron Nason at 603-522-8891 or at aaron.nason@sau101.org if you have any questions.

We are excited that our school is participating in NAEP. We know that Paul Elementary School’s students will show what our nation’s students know and can do.
