SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Correction
In the
Federal Register
of October 27, 2026, in FR Doc. 2026-21827, at 91 FR 67555-67558, the notice of the Board's hybrid meetings is corrected as follows:
On page 67556, in the first column, under
ADDRESSES
, remove “TBD.” and add “Courtyard Washington Downtown Convention Center, 901 L Street NW, Washington, DC 20001.”
On page 67557, in the first column, under Thursday, November 19, 2026, revise the description of the closed plenary session scheduled from 12:45 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. to read as follows: The Board will receive an overview of bridge studies and evaluations supporting the release of the 2026 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Reading and Mathematics results. This session must be closed because the presentation and discussion will include information about the budget and the Federal acquisition process, as well as data that cannot be released to the public at this time. Public disclosure of this confidential information would significantly impede implementation of the NAEP assessment program. Exemption 9(B) of the Government in the Sunshine Act, 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B), protects these matters.
On page 67556, in the second column, and on page 67557, in the first column, under Friday, November 20, 2026, add: the Nominations Committee will meet in closed session from 7:00 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. to discuss outreach activities and applications for Board vacancies for the 2027 nominations cycle, including the rating process and member assignments for reviewing applications. The discussion will include personal

information that, if disclosed, would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. Exemption 6 of the Government in the Sunshine Act, 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6), protects the discussion.
