Upper School
Student Support
Research proves that students learn best when their academic, emotional, physical, and social needs are met. Annie Wright is dedicated to educating the whole child and works to provide a healthy, safe and supportive environment so that our students can be engaged and challenged learners.
Learning Support & Counseling
Student Support in the Upper School is a collaborative effort between the Counseling and Learning Support teams, designed to nurture each student’s academic, social, and emotional growth. We aim to guide students in reaching their personal best while equipping them with the tools needed for independence, resilience, and community-minded thinking.
Our Learning Support team partners with teachers and families to ensure students are both challenged and supported. Learning Specialists offer targeted academic support, coordinate external assessments when needed, and—as our students grow—help them develop self-advocacy and executive functioning skills for long-term success.
Our Counseling team supports students in navigating academic demands, emotional well-being, and personal development. Through individual check-ins, group programming, and collaboration with teachers and families, counselors provide guidance that helps students thrive throughout their Upper School journey.

Health Center
The Health Center has two registered nurses who provide basic health care and education to our AWS community. The nurses promote a healthy school environment, attend to injuries and illness, provide care to students with chronic health conditions, administer medications, direct the immunization program, perform general health screenings, oversee the first aid emergency protocols and coordinate referrals to healthcare providers. Our nurses strive to be a source of guidance and education to help our students realize their full potential.
