What does WilMac do?
Member districts share service providers such as early childhood special education teachers, occupational therapists, physical therapists, school psychologists, social workers, speech language pathologists, teacher of the deaf/hard of hearing, and teacher of students with visual impairments to ensure all students in the area have access to these services as part of their I.E.P.
Member districts also share special education administrators such as program coordinators, assistant director, and director. The staff in these positions work with families, teachers, administrators, superintendents, and more to help support the special education programs in each member district.
WilMac service providers and special education administrators work within the member districts providing services and recommendations based on education and experience under the discretion of the member districts.
