WISE Services works with teachers, students, parents, administrators and community members at schools interested in beginning a locally designed WISE program. WISE Services provides initial materials and assists each program on an ongoing basis. There is an initial fee for our more intense involvement during the first two years of implementing WISE at new WISE schools, and a more modest fee for the years thereafter.
Calling on former WISE coordinators and mentors with years of experience, WISE Services schedules virtual and live workshops in helping kickoff the program, recruiting students and choosing their projects, mentoring, journal writing, researching, collaborating, presentation skills, program evaluation and task force development. WISE Services also encourages interaction among WISE schools through contact with other WISE school, be it virtual or live.
