The Willow School's renowned academic program engages students and challenges them to think critically, analytically, and creatively. A National Blue Ribbon School in partnership with university affiliates, The Willow School has mastered the art of balancing a rigorous academic program, with accompanying higher expectations, and student well-being. 

Our unique curriculum is founded on the concept of arts integration. The school believes strongly in the power of combining critical thinking skills and creativity to prepare its students for a successful academic future and to help them develop and grow into adulthood.
