Willow varsity soccer midfielder Sebastian Salm has won the GATORADE LOUISIANA BOYS SOCCER PLAYER OF THE YEAR award! The award celebrates the nation’s top high school athletes for excellence on the field, in the classroom and in the community. Salm led the Lions to a 23-0-4 record and the Class 3A state championship this past season. He scored seven goals and passed for 10 assists, logging four of those setups in the postseason. His influence and control during the state championship match earned him the Most Outstanding Player award. He has lifted The Willow School to three straight Division III state titles and was an All-State Defensive Most Valuable Player honoree in 2024. Salm has volunteered locally with the Culture Air Nola food bank and with the Lafitte Trash-Clean-Up. Congrats, Sebastian!
School may be out for the summer, but Willow School staff members are always seeking opportunities to grow and learn in preparation for the next school year. Many teachers and administrators recently attended the Louisiana Department of Education's Teacher Leader Summit, an annual professional learning conference that brings together Louisiana birth-to-grade-12 educators and content experts.
Team Willow (staff) celebrated the end of the school year at the park. What a great way to wrap up the year! Thank you, Willow faculty, staff and administration, for another fabulous year! Now, time to prep for 2024-25!
Congratulations to Willow High School senior Tyran Zardies Jr., who won this year’s Stay in School Car Giveaway. Zardies, who plans to study finance at LSU, walked away with a 2024 Toyota Corolla LE from Premier Automotive Group/Toyota of New Orleans for being one of 60 NOLA Public School students to have perfect attendance in their senior year of high school. He was randomly selected via a raffle. The Orleans Parish School Board contributed $2,777.96 to help cover taxes and registration fees for the vehicle giveaway.

The Willow Class of 2024 attended the Lower School Morning Meeting today for their Senior Send-Off. After singing "Learning the Willow Way," they received graduation caps made by the kindergarten and fourth grade buddies, and the seniors toured the school and played on the playground. Congratulations, Seniors!
