Student Learning
Plans
The Certificate of Academic Achievement Student Learning Plan was
developed to help assure continued progress in academic achievement
as a foundation and to assure that all students are on track for
high school graduation. Each school district in the State of Washington
needs to provide a plan for each student (or a group of students
with similar academic needs) who is not successful on any or all
of the content areas of the Washington Assessment of Student Learning
(WASL).

Who is required to have a plan?

and 10th grade WASL.
When are the plans required?

2005-06: 5th and 8th grade students
Classes of 2008 and 2009: Reading, writing and mathematics

(Student Learning Plans are maintained until the student meets standards
on the WASL or WASL retakes)
What must be included?
Grades 5 and 8-12: WASL results; actions that the school intends
to take to improve the student's skills and strategies; strategies
to help parents improve their child's skills; annual adjustments
as needed; parent contact.
Grades 8-12: Also to specifically include courses, competencies,
and other steps needed to meet academic standards and stay on track
for graduation. Annual adjustments are to be made to the plan, as
necessary.
When do the plans have to be completed in the school year?
Although completed plans early in the school year would provide more
time to help students who do not meet standard on the WASL, the
law allows plans to be completed any time within the school year.
What parent/guardian involvement is required?
To be notified, preferably through a parent conference. Progress
shall be reported annually to parent/guardian.
