Welcome to the Office of Student and Family Supports
-
The Office of Student and Family Supports is new to the school district. It brings together existing departments (Behavior, MTSS-SEL) and a Board appointed advisory committee "Zoning Advisory Committee". As is true with all WCSD offices, the office exists to support students as they progress toward graduation and beyond. Toward this end, our office focuses on promoting and supporting climate and culture. For students to best achieve their goals and aspirations, an optimal learning environment is required.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Office of Student and Family Supports is to provide system-wide leadership for a unified approach to fostering climate and engagement. An engaging climate which optimizes learning is one in which students, families, and staff share a sense of belongingness, is inclusive, and one in which equitable practices and collaboration prevail. This involves coordination between and among the Behavioral Department "Behavior", and the MTSS-SEL Department "MTSS-SEL". It further requires collaboration and alignment with other Departments including but not limited to the Intervention Department "Truancy, Reengagement,Child in Transition and Family Resource Centers, the Counseling Department "Counseling", and the Family Schools Partnership Department "Family Partnerships". We provide a platform for informal conflict resolution. Our daily aim is to support student success directly, through family engagement, and through support for teachers and administrators at the site level.
