academic year, we will only be serving

We follow the WOU academic calendar and are open for 3, 11-week terms.
Please note that the form is quite long and will take about 30 minutes to fill out. We ask that you thoughtfully and completely fill out your responses. Please be completely honest about your child’s abilities, habits and challenges. This will help us serve your family. It is difficult to fill out these forms on a cell phone so we recommend using a computer.
If you need access to a computer to fill out our forms, language translation or need assistance of any kind to complete our enrollment, please contact Tammy Gardner at gardnert@wou.edu or leave a message at 503-838-8238. We can make an appointment and provide access to a computer, interpretation or any additional assistance.
Please contact Tammy Gardner, Director, at gardnert@wou.edu
