ABOUT WDDS For nearly 40 years, parents and professionals have relied on Wilkes Developmental Day School, a private non-profit agency, to meet the needs of children with various abilities, in an inclusive setting. Children receive specialized programming to fit individual needs, including Speech/Language, Physical and Occupational therapies. Classrooms have lower child/staff ratios than required by the state, allowing more individual attention to be given to each child. Staff consists of certified teachers, infant/toddler family specialists and a school nurse. Certified by the Department of Health and Human Services as a Developmental Disabilities Center, WDDS is also licensed as a 5 star childcare center by the Division of Child Development. The school has received the distinction of being accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The preschool program is open to all children ages' birth to five. These are inclusive classrooms, which simply mean some of the children enrolled have a disability or are at risk for a delay, and others are enrolled solely for childcare. Every child is assessed and their individual needs established. The teachers work on individual goals for each child as part of their daily routine. Additionally, WDDS offers Home Bound services for children who maybe too medically fragile to attend public school or other childcare facilities. Wilkes Developmental Day School is open Monday through Friday from 6:30AM to 5:00PM. The school observes the Wilkes County School system calendar during the school year. |
