The official school crest was designed in 1939 by William T. Laing and W. Clair Weir. Its Latin words were contributed by Alymer Tennyson.
Starting in the fall of 2014, WDSS has Grade 7-8 students from H.W. Burgess, D.A. Gordon and A.A. Wright. Both Burgess and Wright became JK-Grade 6 schools. D.A. Gordon closed in June 2014, with students being moved to Burgess and Wright.
The Grade 7-8 students at WDSS will be housed in a separate wing of the school, which used to house a St. Clair College campus.
