Chinese Lion Dancers and a parade by Willows’ students will kick off the ceremony.
Festivities, a DJ, food, creative children’s activities, and informal tours will immediately follow the program. The re-imagined Willows campus incudes a redesign of the Lower Elementary Building, a Library/Media Center moved to the heart of the campus, a new playground, lunch area,
kindergarten yard, dedicated athletic courts, landscaping and shade, an expanded organic garden, new classroom space, a S.T.E.A.M.

voices have been vital to and at the heart of all our design efforts,”
says Head of School Lisa Rosenstein.
