WA Transcript - Reading Standard/Writing Standard vs English Language Arts Standard for Classes of 2014 and 2015

If all three tests are taken and they passed (MET) all three, all three standards will print on the transcript.  Since they took all three tests and passed, that should be indicated on the transcript.

If ELA test was passed without both Reading and Writing passed, then only ELA Standard will print.

If ELA test was not taken or not passed, Reading and Writing Standards will print.  Even if Reading and Writing Standards (both) did not pass.
