Who takes the WASL and when is it taken?
A. The WASL is currently taken by most 4th-, 7th- and 10th-grade public school students. The WASL is given throughout the state during the last two weeks of April and the first week of May; schools and school districts may administer the test anytime during that time period. The WASL is not a timed assessment, but a student will typically spend several hours a day over a five-day period actually taking the test.
