Welcome to the Office of Student Services
The Office of Student Services is an academic focused office with a focus on the conditions for learning. It is composed of several departments ( Family School Partnerships, Intervention, Counseling, Psychological Services, and Student Health Services), and is responsible for staffing several Board of Trustees Committees ( Safe & Healthy Schools Commission, The Family Resource Centers Committee, and Student Attendance Advisory Committee). As is true with all WCSD offices, the office exists to support students as they progress toward graduation and beyond.
