Learning for all, excellence for all
Dual Language Immersion
Through our English-Spanish Dual Language Program, WPS provides an enriched, bilingual, bi-literate educational experience for students. Students have the opportunity to learn another language, receive the same high-quality curriculum, and grow into cross-cultural learners and critical thinkers.
Attendance
Every Day Counts at VACDES! We need our Little Judges in school, on time, ready to learn each day. Regular attendance is essential for young learners—it helps them build strong foundations in reading, math, and social skills, and sets the stage for long-term academic success.
Preschool Programs
VACDES values early childhood education and hosts two 4-year-old preschool classrooms through the Virginia Preschool Initiative. In preschool, children build early literacy and math skills, learn how to work with others, and develop the social and emotional skills that help them thrive in school and beyond.
