Based on several records found within the U.S. Department of Education for Washington state, WASL averages, and trends. The records show that about 49% of tenth graders in Washington have completed and passed the WASL in 2008. One story idea could then be new techniques teachers are using to prepare students to pass the WASL in all categories.
I also found a record for SBE Accountability 2009, stating that by December 1, 2009, school districts in Washington will need to give information about a proposal for Accountability Index, Voluntary assistance to districts, and Required Action in no improvement for schools struggling to meet standards. I thought I could possibly go to both the Pullman School District as well as each individual school to see what they are working on for these proposals.
