Our visual art teacher
Ms. Bagneris worked with students to create a special installation. This installation is a willow tree for which each student created a leaf.



Morning Meeting is full of dance parties this week!


The girls’ basketball team played a hard-fought game at Sacred Heart this evening. They head into the holiday break ready for the back half of their season schedule. Go Lions!


Line dancing! That’s how we start exam week! 😁😁



As the forecast for expected inclement weather indicates that severe weather will enter our area earlier than anticipated, and out of an abundance of caution, The Willow School will close at 12:30 today. All aftercare and after-school events are cancelled. Please be safe.

Students in Ms. Maldonado’s ELA class played dreidel today. Dreidel is a spinning top game traditionally played during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. It was a very exciting way to start the holiday season!
