Wiley has turned into a whole new school with friendly staff and warm welcomes with the arrival of it's new principal. To say that there has been a complete turn around would be an understatement. This school is absolutely the best place to be!!! =)

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Washington used the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) to test students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, in writing in grades 4 and 7, and in science in grades 5 and 8. The MSP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Washington. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
