HB 2803: Student assessments

Summary

• $ Individual home-schooled and individual private school students may take the WASL assessments at public schools at no cost as part of the school districts' ancillary programs (puts current practice in statute).
• $ If a significant number of students who attend the same approved private school wish to take the assessments at the private school, the assessment contractor may give the assessments at the private school and have the private school administer the assessments. The state pays the cost of the test itself for each student, including processing the results, to the assessment contractor.
