The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) will release results from the 2008 arts assessment on June 15, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. "The Nation's Report Card: 2008 Arts" examines the performance of eighth-graders in music and visual arts. The 2008 NAEP arts assessment measured students' knowledge and skills in the arts by asking them to observe, describe, analyze, and evaluate existing works of music and visual art and to create original works of visual art.
