Company Overview
Imagine a classroom where children are engaged in animated discussions, where cross-age groups work together to create a science project, where partners interview each other for a writing assignment, where learning takes place outside the building as well as inside. All of this and more happens at Willowwind School both in our Montessori-style preschool classrooms as well as in our kindergarten through sixth grade classrooms.
