Abstract	The task of the Ad Hoc Committee on Planning for the the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 12th Grade Assessments in 2009 addresses three policy areas: (1) Conducting assessment at the state level in 12th grade; (2) Reporting on 12th grade student preparedness for college-credit coursework, training for employment and entrance into the military; and (3) Improving 12th grade school and student participation. Recommendations include: (1) Proceed with planning for the 2009 implementation of state-level assessments in reading and mathematics at grade 12 on at least a pilot basis in 10 states; (2) If technically, operationally and economically feasible, include statements about 12th grade preparedness in NAEP reports, beginning with reading and mathematics assessments to be conducted in 2009; (3) Develop and implement a plan for setting a final policy definition of 12th grade student preparedness; (4) Limit the term "12th grade student preparedness" to postsecondary education and training for occupations; (5) Focus on academic qualification without remediation; (6) Report 12th grade student preparedness in conjunction with the Governing Board's Basic, Proficient and Advanced achievement levels; (7) Simplify reporting; (8) Determine relevant ancillary information to include in NAEP reports; (9) Continue implementation of National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) plan to improve 12th grade school and student participation; (10) Amend NCES plan to include contact with district superintendents and courtesy contact with district school board presidents; and (11) Monitor and evaluate implementation of the NCES plan to determine impact on school and student participation.
