The National Assessment of Education Progress is an organization which measures American's proficiency in all subject areas, but the assessments for some disciplines (like the arts) are not done on a regular basis. This is the first time music has been assessed since 1997, and before that it had been since 1978.

Despite being written into No Child Left Behind as a core academic subject, this was the first time NAEP has provided an arts report card since 1997. The assessment was administered to a nationally representative sample of 7,900 eighth grade students in both public and private schools, with approximately half assessed in music and half assessed in the visual arts.
