Thursdays are "Thankful Thursdays." Last week, the TAV 4th graders lead us in Morning Meeting! They went to the parents, who shared that they were thankful for: getting to school on time, swimming pools, wonderful teachers, the Willow community, dino nuggies, and of course, their fabulous children. Mr. Hausman and Mr. Barrau got us dancing to some Louisiana music - we're also thankful for them!

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!
