- Description
- The National Assessment Governing Board (NAGB) is an independent, bipartisan Board that sets policy for the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), commonly known as The Nation's Report Card. NAEP makes objective information on student performance available to policy makers and the public at the national, state, and local levels. It has served an important role in evaluating the condition and progress of American education for more than three decades. Created by Congress in 1988, the Governing Board is made up of 26 members, including governors, state legislators, local and state school officials, educators and researchers, business representatives, and members of the general public. More information on the Governing Board and its work is at www.nagb.org. The Governing Board/CCSSO Policy Task Force: As part of the Board's outreach efforts to seek input from state education leaders, the Governing Board has partnered with the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) to establish a Task Force. The Task Force is charged with providing feedback from states and includes making recommendations to the National Assessment Governing Board on policy areas and projects related to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). The Task Force is comprised of 12 high-level state education agency leaders including 1 chief state school officer, 8 members who are either deputy or assistant superintendents, and 3 public information officers. This wide cross section of perspectives vested in education will help shape careful and extensive deliberations on many NAGB/NAEP policy areas. The joint effort will span approximately 36 months based on Task Force objectives and the long range planning goals adopted by the Governing Board. The Board intends to award a sole source contract to the Council of Chief State School Officers under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulations Part 13.106-1(b) (1) as CCSSO is the only responsible source due to their membership and constituent base for the targeted outreach. Interested persons or organizations may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all capability statements received within 15 days after publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Governing Board. Period of Performance: Twelve months with two twelve month option periods.
