In late 2001, this report was released from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). The Nation's Report Card: Science 2000, gives the results of a survey by the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) showing, "on average, what students know and can do" in science. NAEP reports that fourth-graders' and eighth-graders' scores were largely unchanged since 1996, but that twelfth-graders' scores declined three points. The site offers links to various data: national results, state results, subgroup results, and much more.
