The FY2027 President's Budget requests $129.9M for National assessment (section 303), within Education's Institute of Education Sciences account. That is up 19% on the FY2025 figure of $109.5M, which is the enacted appropriation.

| FY2027 | request | $129.9M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Education discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Education's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), 'The Nation's Report Card,' the largest nationally representative continuing assessment of what U.S. students know and can do across subject areas.
Extracted from Institute of Education Sciences, p. 56. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
