The new, interactive Nation’s Report Card
answers your questions about student progress in mathematics and reading
for select urban school districts.
Many districts have more than ten years of results.

from the NAEP 2013 Trial Urban District Assessment, otherwise known as TUDA.
The microsite guides you through the data by answering key questions including:

And, How do districts compare to other jurisdictions?
You can also answer questions of your own such as “which districts participated in 2009?”
High-level answers to each question can be found in the right hand column, while the charts allow you to dig deeper into the data.
In the section "Are districts making progress?" you can click on a district to see how its score compares to that of large cities nationally
and the nation as a whole from any administration year.
