NAEP Technical DocumentationStudent Sample Selection for the Private School 2011 Writing Computer-Based Assessment (WCBA)

For the NAEP 2011 writing computer-based assessment (WCBA), the target student sample sizes within sampled schools were the same for both eighth and twelfth grades. All students were sampled if the school had 30 or fewer students in that grade. Otherwise, a sample of 30 students was selected without replacement.

The process of list submission, sampling new enrollees, and determining student eligibility and exclusion status was the same as the process used for the NAEP 2011 state student samples.
