If you have questions regarding the Student Learning Plan requirement (what content areas need to be included in plans, what WASL triggers the need for a plan, etc.) please call Arcella Hall at (253) 593-2078. For questions regarding the web-based tool contact Customer Support at customersupport@k12.wa.us. Our TTY number is 360-664-3631.

Overview

Student Learning Plan - The goal of the Student Learning Plan (SLP) is to make sure an individual student gets the help needed to stay on track and graduate from high school. All school districts are required to provide a plan for every 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?
SLPs must be prepared for all students in 8th -12th grade who were unsuccessful in a content area the previous year. That means that the 7th, 8th, and high school WASLs all trigger SLPs and adding content areas based on the most recently taken WASL.

SLPs must be prepared for all 5th grade students who were unsuccessful in a content area on the 4th grade WASL.

SLPs 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.
