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.

The school is okay in need of better academic opportunities and diversity in school. School must work on creating more options for student in form of college readiness.

I love this school district. I think it gets a bit of a bad wrap from some people, but in my experience they just don't understand. I had the opportunity to work in the offices and speak on a personal level with the administration. They spoke to me about why they chose their line of work and it was very moving. I was able to hear about their personal reasons and what they had in their hearts to pursue this field. I think most people who hated it, just didn't understand why there were rules and chose to see the bad in everything, which in unfortunate because Willard chose to see the good in everyone of them .

My experience at Willard High School is one I will never forget. Ever since I was a freshman I was brought in and accepted along with many of my friends by teachers and upperclassmen. Being involved in team sports and supporting other sports was my favorite aspect of my experience. The only thing I would change about my highschool is to make the dresscode more flexible or completely abolish it.

This school is horrible. The teachers fail to communicate with parents and seem not to care about the children unless they are athletic or have the right last name. I have also witnessed the teachers being verbally abusive to the children and making fun of them with other students, which is incredib...

This school system is the worst my children have ever attended. Most (95%) of the teachers do not communicate with parents and are very sarcastic. If you grew up here, are athletic or have "The Name" you will like the school but if you are an outsider, DO NOT COME HERE (there IS a double standard)....
