The WES Side by Side program has provided exemplary inclusive early childhood education for 27 years. The school administration has proposed eliminating the full-day program in response to ongoing budgetary challenges. The full-day program offers greater flexibility for working parents, a higher likelihood of student diversity, and the potential to pay for itself.

We are asking the administration to preserve the full-day Side by Side program for the coming year to allow time for development of a self-sustaining model.
