WSD is responsible for sending out an invitation to all students eligible for the SES program. A provider matrix is provided, within this mailing, for the parent to make an informed choice of provider.

Providers may not be on school grounds to promote their business. It is preferred if you are promoting your business that your representative be down the street, away from the safe walking route for the student, before or after school.
