Pre-K through Grade 2 Students

WACS assesses students during the most critical time in their development as readers, guiding educators with targeted intervention to improve student achievement.

Educators

WACS results are available immediately after students complete the assessment, giving educators real-time data for planning and program evaluation. Because WACS includes a deep and comprehensive items bank, it can be reliably delivered multiple times per year, making it an ideal tool for Response to Intervention (RtI) and ongoing assessment. Best of all, administering WACS requires minimal training and minimal teacher time.

Administrators

WACS, through its Web-based delivery model, is easy to deploy and manage in a school district of any size. Reports are available anywhere, anytime with the option to export data. And because WACS is computer-administered, the results are objective and reliable.

$2 billion is spent each year on students who repeat a grade because they have reading problems.
