HOW DO YOU FIND OUT YOUR STATE TESTING SCORES?

Log in to Student or Family Access.
On the left menu, select "Test Scores".
A list of all standardized test scores will be listed. A summary of the state testing scores for Washington State graduation purposes will be under the selection "GDWa-GraduateofWA". Click on "Show Scores."
If a student has met the requirement, it will say "Yes" under the subject column (see circled areas below). The example shows a student that has met all four state testing requirements. Under "Section: Tests", there is a summary of the number of attempts for each type of test and the highest score met so far. A 400 is a standard passing score for Reading, Math, and Science. A 17 is a standard passing score for Writing. The various score levels can be found at: https://www.k12.wa.us/assessment/StateTesting/ScaleScores.aspx.

Questions about state testing requirements can be directed to Assistant Principals Sena Camarata or Andy Brownson.
