Welcome to Willow Lane Elementary

We have placed an emphasis on being culturally responsive in our curriculum and instruction and provide opportunities for all students to give back to our community through service learning initiatives.

Strategic Planning:

Willow Lane Elementary School is a dynamic community of uniquely diverse learners.  We believe that learning and service increase the quality of life and our mission is to ensure high academic achievement and social-emotional growth resulting in everyone reaching their full potential through a vital system distinguished by:

• innovative, relevant, and data-informed instruction

• a consistent and robust system of communication and collaboration among students, staff, families, and community

• a safe, compassionate, and culturally-relevant environment
