Creativity and technology are integral parts of our curriculum, designed to develop out-of-the-box, design thinkers. Creativity is not restricted to the arts, but fostered in every discipline. Technology and our maker program are integrated seamlessly in our curriculum as an essential tool for learning.
The Willows’ definition of a great mind also includes an emphasis on character and heart–the ability to communicate honestly, work collaboratively, take responsibility, and contribute meaningfully to the community. We prepare our students to become adults, who value empathy, make sound decisions, practice ethical behavior, and express joy.
We encourage students to explore the road less traveled, to ask difficult and thoughtful questions, to take intellectual and creative risks, and to dare to dream. We want our students to live the credo: All things are possible.
As we state in our mission, we know that each child brings an “extraordinary gift” to our community. We cherish our students’ curious minds and embrace every opportunity to help them flourish emotionally and intellectually, now and in the future.
