Organizations Filed Purposes:
THE WILLOW SCHOOL, A SMALL, INDEPENDENT CO-EDUCATIONAL DAY SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS IN PRE-KINDERGARTEN THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE, IS COMMITTED TO COMBINING ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND THE JOY OF LEARNING AND TO EXPERIENCING THE WONDER OF THE NATURAL WORLD. MASTERY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN AN INTEGRATED CURRICULUM THAT HELPS STUDENTS COMPREHEND THE PATTERNS OF HOW THINGS ARE CONNECTED AND PREPARES THEM FOR ALL AREAS OF THEIR SECONDARY EDUCATION. THE SCHOOL IS DEDICATED TO MAINTAINING AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE RESPECT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL, AN OUTSTANDING FACULTY, AND AN UNDERSTANDING OF PLACE FOSTER INDEPENDENT THINKING, CREATIVITY, RESPONSIBILITY, AND INTEGRITY. THE WILLOW SCHOOL EDUCATION ENABLES CHILDREN TO DEVELOP AN ETHICAL APPROACH TO ALL RELATIONSHIPS, TO REALIZE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL, AND TO BELIEVE IN THEIR POWER TO EFFECT POSITIVE CHANGE.
TO OPERATE A SCHOOL FOR THE EDUCATION, TRAINING AND SOCIALIZATION OF CHILDREN IN THE GRADES OF PRE-KINDERGARTEN THROUGH EIGHTH.
THE WILLOW SCHOOL OFFERS AN INTEGRATED CURRICULUM WHICH ALLOWS STUDENTS TO LEARN MATERIAL IN GREAT DEPTH AS WELL AS TO SEE THE CONNECTIONS THAT NATURALLY EXIST AMONG SUBJECT AREAS. THE PRIMARY DEVICE FOR INTEGRATION OF THE CURRICULUM IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNICATION SKILLS USING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. PARALLEL TO THAT USAGE IS THE STUDY OF FRENCH OR SPANISH FROM KINDERGARTEN THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE. WHILE THE DISCIPLINES OF MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE, AND OF LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL STUDIES, ARE OFTEN CONNECTED AT THE WILLOW SCHOOL, IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT FOR CHILDREN TO LEARN, FOR INSTANCE, HOW SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES HAVE SHAPED THE WAYS HUMANS RELATE TO EACH OTHER OR HOW THE USE OF MATHEMATICS DETERMINES THE DESIGN OF MUSIC AND ARCHITECTURE. ALL LEARNING IS SPIRAL, AS THE CHILD RETURNS TO SKILLS AND SUBJECT MATTER ONCE PRESENTED BUT NOW MORE COMPLEX AND CHALLENGING.
