WPUSD provides student support through a variety of programs and services.

Programs During the School Day
Many support programs are available to students during the school day for academic, behavioral and/or emotional support. Contacting your child's teacher, principal, school counselor or school psychologist is the best way to learn about these programs. 

A Student Study Team (SST) meeting or series of meetings can be scheduled to bring together a team of caring adults and parents to look more deeply into a child's needs in these areas. Please contact your child's teacher or your school principal for more details.
