What is the COE?

• A legislatively approved alternative to the WASL
  that is comparable in rigor to the WASL WASL is
  still the standard for assessing a students
  skills and knowledge
• One way a student can meet requirements for a
  Certificate of Academic Achievement (CAA)
• Designed for students who have the skills and
  knowledge assessed on the WASL

Whats in a COE

• Student work samples developed over time in
  academic and/or career and technical classes
• Each work sample demonstrates both mathematical
  content and process
• The work is aligned to the grade 10 Essential
  Academic Learning Requirements (EALRs), Grade
  Level Expectations (GLEs) and Washington
  Assessment of Student Learning (WASL)
