Committee members reviewed changes to the state's assessment and accountability program included as part of Act 55 of the Wisconsin budget bill that was passed in July.  Changes include new tests in grades 3-8 that will replace the Badger 3-8 Exam that is discontinued after 1 year.  The Committee also reviewed a list of academic standards that are used in the WUSD classroom curricula across all programs and disciplines.  Act 55 requires that parents are informed annually of academic standards used in schools.
