2 Department of Defense Education Activity (overseas and domestic schools).

NOTE: Beginning with the 2017 assessment, NAEP reading results are from a digitally based assessment; prior to 2017, results were from a paper-and-pencil based assessment. The overall

national results include both public and nonpublic school students. The national (public) and state/jurisdiction results include public school students only. Data for DoDEA schools are included in

the overall national results, but not in the national (public) results. Black includes African American, Hispanic includes Latino, and Pacific Islander includes Native Hawaiian. Race categories

exclude Hispanic origin. Results are not shown for students whose race/ethnicity was unclassified or two or more races, and for students whose eligibility status for free/reduced-price school

lunch was not available.

NOTE: Beginning with the 2017 assessment, NAEP reading results are from a digitally based assessment; prior to 2017, results were from a paper-and-pencil based assessment. The overall national

results include both public and nonpublic school students. The national (public) and state/jurisdiction results include public school students only. Data for DoDEA schools are included in the overall national

results, but not in the national (public) results.
