The Wraparound Support Program (WSP) is a district-wide initiative within Columbia County School District that began in the 2018-2019 school year. The Wraparound Support Program is, above all, an initiative focused on student voice. The Wraparound Support Program facilitates partnerships between students, schools, family, and community stakeholders to enhance students’ socio-emotional well-being while assisting in their transition to post-secondary life.
