Faculty, administration and staff may propose projects to the WCF Program Committee, chaired by the principal. Recommended projects will be sent first to the superintendent for review and then sent to the WCF Steering Committee for approval and funding.
Examples of projects supported to date include: mathematics and science department needs assessments; instructional coaching for mathematics, science and literacy; laptop carts; professional development on behavior management and relationship building; digital media literacy and lesson design; development of an independent and experiential learning program along with a critical language program; a joint middle- and high-school interdisciplinary choral residency; and a summer institute focused on teacher-designed course development.
