Most schools have facilities. Willow has a learning laboratory designed for the way children learn best.

Willow’s 34-acre campus is purposefully designed to encourage a higher standard of learning and support ethical relationships within the community and with the natural world. Since the school was founded in 2000, Willow has confronted the enormous test to create a more sustainable world, head on. Our campus is intentionally crafted to reduce our impact on the environment and provide a range of learning opportunities.

The small and large ways that Willow lives its commitment to sustainability every day makes a powerful impression on students. When children are part of a school community that tackles complex problems and does what they can to make a difference, they acquire the confidence and compassion to be effective agents of change. Willow graduates stand apart from their peers because they can move beyond caring about important issues, to using their knowledge, understanding, and skills to do something about them.

Children learn best with an abundance of natural light. Our floor to ceiling windows in the classrooms and library enable students to be immersed in and engaged with the natural world even when they are inside. Classrooms and spaces for art, music, and performances also harness the maximum natural daylight. Our indoor spaces open directly to the grounds for seamless outdoor study, exploration, and play.

 


Every day, faculty and students use the Willow campus as a teaching and learning laboratory.
