At Willis, we pride ourselves in providing students with diverse learning experiences that address their academic, social, and emotional needs. Everything we do at Willis is centered on our three Core Values.  Willis is a place where: (1) everyone must feel safe and valued, (2) learning is a priority, and (3) we take pride in our school and doing little things can make a big difference. We encourage the development of the whole-child and want all of our students to be active participants in their learning experience. We offer a wide variety of student-led clubs, athletics, and social activities to assist them in their efforts to build connections within our school community.
Our rich academic tradition includes such accolades as state championships in Knowledge Bowl, Arizona Science and Engineering Fair Championships, National History Day competition winners, and state championships in VEX Robotics. A highly acclaimed music program provides students with opportunities to enhance their artistic abilities through, band, jazz band, choir and orchestra.
