Utah’s fourth and eighth graders are outpacing most of the country in math and reading, according to new national data released Wednesday.
However, Utah’s scores have remained relatively unchanged since 2022, when the National Assessment of Educational Progress — also known as the Nation’s Report Card — was last administered.
Every two years, the national assessment is provided to a sample of students in fourth and eighth grade, allowing for comparisons across states. It is separate from Utah’s standardized exams.
