Transition Program - General Overview
All students attending WSSB age 14 and up participate in
Transition and Career Education activities as part of their yearly
program. Students on IEP’s have a transition plan included and
updated each year. The staff at WSSB is committed to assisting
students in realizing their goals at WSSB and beyond.
Activities vary, but include field trips, guest speakers, career
fairs, workshops related to transition issues, work experience,
career exploration activities – in group settings and/or
individually directed, class career education projects, college
visits, and a class required of juniors titled GOALS (Go Out and
Live Successfully).
WSSB works in partnership with the Dept. of Services for the Blind
(DSB) on many of these activities, as well as working with
students and their families to apply for vocational rehabilitation
services with DSB.
Students not currently attending WSSB are always encouraged and
often involved in these activities.
