SEATTLE — Washington education officials plan to release the spring WASL results today. Children in third through eighth grades plus high school students took the student achievement tests this past April.
School officials are getting a better idea of how close the class of 2009 is to meeting statewide graduation requirements.
High school students must pass the reading and writing parts of the Washington Assessment of Student Learning among other graduation requirements. They need to either pass the math WASL or keep taking and passing math classes and keep trying to pass the WASL. The state offers several alternatives to the WASL exams.
Also today, the College Board releases state-by-state results on the 2008 Scholastic Aptitude Test. The college entrance exam is used by some universities to determine a student’s readiness for higher education.
