GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There are many different clubs and organizations available at the school if you are not interested in sports. There are academic clubs such as FBLA and FCCLA.

Teachers at Willow at either really good or really bad. The main subjects have mostly great teachers that love their job and are willing to hep any of the students that need it.

The elective class teachers are more into the class because they do not have to worry about the testing at the end of the year.
