National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Fast Facts

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Fast Facts website originated from a list of questions frequently asked of NCES and was started as a resource for the general public for brief, yet up-to-date, education facts. AIR Education program staff members update the content for the Fast Facts website by identifying information newly released by NCES, identifying outdated facts to be removed from the site and recommending new facts.
