WASL test may be costing taxpayers a fortune
“This test, which costs so much money, is still being used and still being trotted out even though there are questions from the legislature and from many other people about this test”
The WASL test is touted as a crucial step towards graduation for Washington's high school students. via KXLY

Is the WASL part of no child left behind?

NO. WASL was around in this state long before "No Child Left Behind" was introduced.

Really? When was WASL introduced and WHY was it introduced if it wasn't mandated by some "official office"? Most teachers I know have never considered tests a reliable measure of learning. |

Just in case anyone is reading this- the WASL test was instituted as a DIRECT RESULT of No Child Left behind. Thank you for the further info KXLY.
