While not explicitly tied to particular national or state standards, its reports provide a way of looking at student progress across the country in the eight subject areas the NAEP covers. These are the arts, civics, geography, math, reading, science, US history, and writing. Each subject has its own page that contains findings from related assessments, answers to basic questions about assessment, and standards and frameworks links. The NAEP site contains the following results (and the year last administered): the arts (1997), civics (1998), geography (1994; the 2001 results are being analyzed), math (2000), reading (2000), science (1996;the 2000 results are due in the fall of 2001), US history (1994; the 2001 results are being analyzed), and writing (1998).

PBS: Idaho, A Portrait - Geology Of Idaho A lot has happened to the land in idaho in just the last 12,000 years. Being ageologically active region gives an extra crispness to idaho's landscapes. http://www.pbs.org/idahoportrait/about/geology.html
Extractions: A lot has happened to the land in Idaho in just the last 12,000 years. Being a geologically "active" region gives an extra crispness to Idaho's landscapes. Glaciers have moved. Ice has melted. Volcanos have erupted. Earthquakes have adjusted the elevations of mountain peaks. All around Idaho, the evidence of these events is so fresh that it seems like they happened yesterday. At Craters of the Moon in southern Idaho, for example, where magma poured from fissures in the earth's crust only 2,000 years ago, it is likely that Native Americans might have watched from the nearby hills. After the magma cooled, what they saw is what we see todayuneroded cinder cones, craters, endless fields of lava that look as if they rolled across the land yesterday. Lava flows at Craters of the Moon Continental and alpine glaciers, the legacy of the last ice age, were grinding away on Idaho mountains as recently as 10,000 years ago. In fact, during the 1980s, Idaho geologist Monte Wilson made an annual pilgrimage to measure the small remnant patch of Idaho's last glacier, Otto Glacier, on the north side of Borah Peak. Glaciers created over 500 cirques in the high mountains of Idaho. A cirque is a form remaining at the head of a glacial valley where glacial erosion removed big blocks of rock from a mountain and quarried it out. Shallow cirques appear as wet meadows today, while the deeper ones with bowl-shaped floors may contain lakes.

Extractions: Jackson Hole is a valley about 60 miles long and 20 miles wide. It encompasses national forest, Grand Teton National Park and the National Elk Refuge. The valley floor is between 6,200' and 6,800'. To the north, Jackson Hole is bordered by Yellowstone and is elsewhere surrounded by more national forests. The towns of Moose, Kelly and Wilson are also in Jackson Hole. The Teton Range Rocky Mountain landscapes typically offer picturesque views, but few are more impressive than the Teton skyline. The Tetons are the youngest of the Rockies. The range was born some nine million years ago by intermittent, but violent, seismic activity. Because of the way the mountains formed, no foothills hide Jackson Hole's jagged peaks and broad canyons. At the base of the range, large lakes mirror the mountains on calm summer days, doubling their prominence. Prior to the 1820s, Native Americans referred to the mountains as "the Hoary Brothers." Later, they were known as "the Pilot Knobs." Around 1920, however, French Canadian trappers named them "Les Trois Tetons," or "The Three Breasts."
Commissioner Hansen: A number of citizens supported a threeway split as logical because idaho'sgeography and communities of interest naturally form three regions. http://www.puc.state.id.us/internet/press/1205_areacoderelief.htm
Extractions: Case No. GNR-T-00-36 Order No. 28902 IDAHO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION For Immediate Release / Dec. 5, 2001 Contact: Gene Fadness (208) 334-0339 Commission proposes three-way split if area code relief is ordered by FCC BOISE The Idaho Public Utilities Commission today ruled that, with number conservation, Idaho does not need a new area code. However, in the event the Federal Communications Commission does not implement number pooling before an additional area code is needed, the commission recommends the state be split into three geographic regions with an area code assigned to each region. The order retains the existing 208 area code in southwest Idaho and recommends a new area code from Grangeville north to the Canadian border and a new area code from Hagerman east to the Wyoming border. The commission rejected recommendations from the Idaho telecommunications industry that Idaho adopt an "all-services overlay" that would assign the area code to new numbers only. While that plan would not require existing telephone users to change their phone numbers, it would require 10-digit dialing for all local calls. "We agree with the Idaho telecommunications industry that an all-services overlay has several desirable attributes," the commission said. "However, the commission finds it impossible to ignore the testimony of customers, who have indicated their preference for a geographic split with near unanimity." The three-way split received more consideration from the commission after it received written comments and testimony at four public hearings. The commission received 314 written comments and petition signatures from 91 citizens. Twenty-five testified at public hearings.
