Instructional resources will improve your child's skill gaps based on individual assessment data.  WVCS teachers focus on the skills most important to lifelong academic success: reading, writing, and mathematics. Whether your child is a straight-A student or in need of remediation, he or she will receive one-on-one attention from teachers who specialize in making learning fun. Part of each day is devoted to group work and learning stations. Teachers meet with small groups to differentiate and individualize the learning experience. When students are not working with the teacher in their small group, they rotate among a variety of learning stations that reinforce the daily lessons, promote independence, and encourage problem-solving.
