WASL

Tagged:  •  

Ok so for the Washington state High schools we have this test that we take our 4th, 7th, and 10th grade years and now we have to pass this test to graduate. Well for the pass 3 years they ( as in the goverment) has been saying it doesn't need to be used for graduation, then like 3 weeks later they are like oh you need it to graduate, then they tell us that you don't and now they are saying we do... This is the problem with our state people can't just take a test and then go ok you didn't pass you can't graduate. Some people that are really good in school can suck at this test, i think that a test can't show a persons real potental yoiu need to know the person your self.. ** and it doesn't help that the test is like at 7 or 8 in the morning** How can people be just so blah about it. Look at the goverment now i mean come on did all the officals that are in office pass the wasl?? if they didn't look where they are now, they are you higher then the average person and they seem to be doing well right? so if they are fine what about us will we not be that good at whatever we do if we don't pass this stupid test?
