Schools are different.

While schools are technically "non-profits", we know that serving them is a little bit different. It's like running a whole country. It has citizens, an economy, a market, a diverse population, and many differing opinions on the best ways forward.


WDW knows that world. We've been part of schools that started 100 years ago and others that started yesterday. The concepts that govern school success, however, haven't changed much. It's the people that are different. WDW marries classic strategies for successful models with managerial philosophies that mold to modern times. We maintain the wisdom of the past while engaging the human in front of us with charity,

Complementary Consultation

School Specific Services

Administrative Workflow

Administrative Workflow

Administrative Workflow

Is everyone always tired? Working long hours/weekends? Do you hear the complaint, "if we could just get over this hump" or "if we only did things differently"? Let's pop the hood on your workflow and see if there are some simple, key changes we can make to improve everyone's quality of life.

Board, Staff, & Faculty

Administrative Workflow

Administrative Workflow

Everyone is on mission. Everyone knows the mission. But some are struggling to LIVE the mission. We offer training and mentorship for what a school does and how the people in it help it to do that, and we always emphasize the character and identity of YOUR school when we work.

Curriculum

Administrative Workflow

Development & Advancement

Our staff has been part of curriculum development across multiple grade levels and disciplines in both classical and traditional schools and co-ops. We know how much a curriculum means to the identity and effectiveness of a school and its education. If you're looking for outside assistance in crafting cohesive curricular offerings, we can help.

Development & Advancement

Development & Advancement

Development & Advancement

Every school has to fundraise, and there are many firms out there that coach you on best practices. We can do that too, but our expertise is getting to know YOUR constituent base and what THEY want to hear. We've built many successful campaigns and designed many events, and we'll fit them to *your* community.

Culture Audit

Development & Advancement

Mission & Vision

Our flagship, school-specific service. Schools that try to be like everyone else end up being nothing special. Your institution's identity and community is crucial to understanding how you should exist. Let us "audit" your culture and reveal the things that exemplify who you are and how to do that even better,

Mission & Vision

Development & Advancement

Mission & Vision

Everyone has a mission and vision statement, but do they mean anything to your employees and families? We'll take a look at what you do, interview the leadership about why they're there, and talk to your families about what makes you special. From there, we'll work with your board and administration on articulating the good of your work.
