    Dear Mellissa, My son is at his second week of summer camp and loving it! It is so wonderful to see him happily running off to play with his new friends, hearing he is enjoying each of his morning subjects and making requests for future playdates. WillowWood and your team have been kind, welcoming and accommodating. I feel great relief when I drop him off knowing he is in good hands and he's happy. Thank you, thank you☺️

    I know you remember me that my name is Jonathan Lee. I came to WillowWood when was in grade 4 and left when I was in grade 9. For the five years, I came hear I learned so many things. I had a lot of teachers especially Andrew. Andrew and all the teachers taught me something when I was having a hard time. My behaviour in the past was terrible but I have gotten much better as soon as got older. All the classes were good especially high school. I did like high school. In grade 9, there was a problem with coming back or not but it was my decision and what was the right thing to do. I remember everyday going to the office getting called by the principal saying if I am coming back or not. I said "Next year I am not coming back to WillowWood". After the principal told me why and I told them my reason. They accepted my reason and said, "Good luck with your future school." I said, Thank you! At the Awards Ceremony in Semester 2, Fred said that I wasn't coming back to WillowWood. After the ceremony was over, a few of my friends said why aren't you coming back. I told a few of my friends the reason why and they accepted it. So far I am doing well in my new school. I miss a lot of things especially Spiritfest and Halloween also the food in the cafeteria. Thank you for helping what I had accomplished at the school! I graduated from my school in Niagara and have been accepted to college. I am planning to visit the school in the future and to talk with teachers, students and staff.

    How do I put it. Education is a service, not a product. The problem with most private school out there is that they see themselves as an organization selling a product. A product is something that you need to learn to use it, regardless of how sophisticated or ordinary it is. A service is something that serves you, assist you in doing what you need to do, in this case, would be learning and realizing your potential. My son is thriving in all area since the beginning of his arrival at the school, they put him in the math pod a grade higher, and he feels challenged so he would focus, and the help is always there if he needs further clarification. It is a small school but as a person who came from another small private school (in fact it was slightly bigger), they have all the things that a big school has (of course, except for the number of headcounts), a cafeteria where socialization happens during lunch (who wants to eat at your work station), library with librarian, lunch and after school clubs almost everyday, an art room for art class (and they teach arts, not just crafts to young children, if you know what I mean by that). And communication is very transparent, and honest. A great team of people.

    WillowWood is a great school with strong sense of community. It feels like a big happy family. Their Pod program for Lower and middle school allow kids to navigate the subjects at their own pace (both faster or slower than their grade) so they don't get bored or overwhelmed. I have never seen anything like it in other schools that we were in. Individualized learning and one-on-one support is also another one of WillowWood's many strengths. We have been at WillowWood for 9 years and there is nothing but good memories and appreciation for this amazing school.

    I'm graduating this school in a week and this school feels like a place where kids really belong and fit in and interact. It has great support, management and helps kids reach their full potential. Willow wood helped me reach to the core of my potential by giving me opportunities I never even dreamed about. No school is perfect but this school is great. I started going since September 2017. The staff really care about their students and help them gain confidence, and will whatever it takes for he or her to be successful every one needs that.

    My son attended WillowWood from grade 8 to grade 12. I wish I had him start earlier. Quality education with an informal atmosphere that develops trust and confidence.

    Our daughter is currently in grade 12. She transitioned to Willowwood from the public school system at the start of grade 9. Willowwood has been nothing but a positive experience for her and for us. Small class sizes, warm and supportive teachers, and great communication with both kids and parents. We have been pleased to see such positive developments in her self esteem, her overall academics and her current focus and excitement towards her post-secondary career. Willowwood has been a great school for our familyi.

    WillowWood has shaped me academically, I came here in grade 9 not really knowing much about my world and the subjects I study. Today as a grade 12 student, I have gained an exceptional amount of logic that will stick with me for years down the line. The teachers find innovative ways to make teaching firstly relatable but also enjoyable. Thank You WillowWood you guys rock!!

    I cant say enough good things about WillowWood. It is a community of amazing teachers, students and parents who want only the best for your child. My son has just finished his first year here (grade 2) and has thrived . It is a great feeling knowing he is in a supportive environment that comes up with solutions to your child's learning challenges. Overall, he couldnt be happier.

    My daughter joined WillowWood summer school when she was in grade 8 to see if this is the right fit for her for high school. Her experience was amazing she did not mind studying in the summer which shows how happy she was. The teachers were so nice and helpful and answered all my questions with a big smile always. She is about to finish her first year and she is really enjoying her time studying and participating in all the extra activities they offer. As a parent I always wanted to make sure my daughter is happy safe learning and enjoying her time all this is offered by Williwwood. As a mom I can say I am so lucky to have found the school from the teachers to the administrators they are amazing and I can’t thank them enough for all their hard work patience understanding and support. The school organizes lots of activities and they try their best to let all the kids participate from the Christmas show to the yearly trip which was Japan this year (my daughter was lucky enough to go she had a blast and the trip was so organized from start to finish) to the play Annie to the spring fest. All this fun and still the kids are studying and working hard to reach their potential with the non ending support of the teachers. I can see all the improvements and changes that happened to my daughter and I am so happy and thankful for each and everyone in the school.

    I attended WillowWood for grade 11/12 during 2006/7. Teachers were very memorable; Waleed, Phill, Sari, Zubeda, Guy, Fred and Micky. Had the pleasure of running into Fred close to 10 years later on a patio in Prince Edward County and he remains just as personable and caring as I had remembered.
