  • I’ve been fortunate enough to have both of my children matriculate through The Willow School’s GA Lottery Pre-K class. This is a school where children are deeply cared for while experiencing the joy and wonder of learning. Long live TWS!

  • My 3 year old has had a wonderful year at Willow. She is joyful about her days. I love the Reggio approach (so much art making, child-led topics for inquiry), and I feel 1000% confidence and trust in the teachers and staff at Willow. They tend to every detail thoughtfully and lovingly. It’s a warm and welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ families. I cannot recommend this school highly enough!

  • My son has attended The Willow School since he was just 3 months old, and we have truly loved being part of the school community. Watching him grow and thrive there over the years has meant so much to our family. We are very grateful for all of the wonderful experiences and relationships we’ve had at Willow.

  • We’ve had such a wonderful experience at The Willow School! From day one, it’s been clear that this is a place where children are truly cared for, supported, and encouraged to grow. A special thank you to Mrs. Keli, the school director, whose leadership sets such a warm, welcoming tone for the entire school. You can feel her passion and dedication in every detail. Cayman’s current teacher, Miss Grace, has been absolutely amazing—patient, attentive, and genuinely invested in his development. He comes home excited about what he’s learning, which says everything. We’re also so grateful for Miss Jackie, his teacher from last year. She helped us immensely with potty training, and her support made such a difference during that transition. We truly couldn’t have done it without her! The Willow School has been a blessing for our family. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive, and engaging environment for their child. 💛

  • We have had a very positive experience with the Willow school after sending our daughters there. They welcome you with open arms and encourage each child to be inquisitive, empathetic and playful. The teachers and staff are intentional with their instruction for each child in the class, and they remind all of us that we are learning as we go. They also enjoy hosting fun parties during the year based on the season!

What is The Willow School's Quality Rated star rating in Georgia?

Does this page show inspection results for The Willow School?
