At HWDSB, we believe in a responsive and collaborative system where student, classroom and school learning needs are supported and addressed by staff within the school, district and community while valuing parents/guardians as partners.
We believe that most students’ needs are met within the regular classroom through differentiated instruction, accommodations and modifications that may be communicated in students’ individual education plans. Some students receive supplemental supports within their home school or through access to short term, targeted interventions or programs.
A few students require intensive programming to address educational and alternative needs which may be provided within a regular classroom, through targeted intervention or in an alternative placement. Our goal is always to work to develop skills in students so they can be successful within a regular class, school and community.
Some of our supports include:
- Aboriginal Education
- Alternative Education
- Awards & Bursaries
- Mental Health and Well-being
- Prevention
- Safe Schools
- Severe Weather
- Special Education
- Technology – Parent Resource
- Why Homework is Important
