Character Education
As an educational institution, The Willows prepares its students for the future academically, but, even more importantly, it prepares them to be responsible adults committed to that which makes life worth living - family, church, profession, and society.

Willows' teachers provide many opportunities for their students to learn virtues and values through their classroom expectations. By creating caring but challenging classrooms coupled with high behavioral expectations, they foster virtues such as charity, cooperation, neatness, respect, responsibility, punctuality, hard work, honesty and preparedness. Willows teachers know that they are not simply instructors, but above all, they are educators of character.

The Willows Character Education Program begins in the 6th grade and continues until students graduate as seniors. Building good character takes many years of effort and, therefore, The Willows Character Education Program is best accomplished in the 7-year progression. Throughout their years at The Willows, students do not simply learn isolated virtues - they learn to become virtuous people.
