The National Assessment Governing Board is charged by Congress to inform the public about what America’s students know and can do in various subject areas, as measured by The Nation’s Report Card. This information helps our nation understand where more work is needed to improve students’ education.

Through a focus to inform, engage and innovate in its Strategic Vision, the Governing Board will take—and inspire— actions that strengthen the Nation’s Report Card to enable leaders to improve student achievement for all.
