Education is exciting for the over 9,000 Willis Wildkats who attend Prekindergarten, one of six elementary schools, three middle schools and one high school. We are a growing K-12 district nestled between the Sam Houston National Forest and Lake Conroe. Higher expectations for student achievement are set every year and are complimented by a comprehensive array of rigorous academic programs including Gifted and Talented, Career and Technology, Advanced Placement, and Dual Credit courses. College ready juniors and seniors can take Lone Star College courses in their high school classrooms, with some students graduating with more than 40 hours college credit. Through our Career and Technology program, students can acquire skills in variety of areas including architecture and construction, agriculture, audio/video technology, business management, health science, hospitality services and information technology. Certifications in selected fields are available to help students get a quick start on their careers. Our libraries are being transformed into digital learning centers and, through a combination of district provided and student-owned devices, we ensure that our children can access relevant technology in the classroom today to prepare them for the challenges of tomorrow. Our team of professional educators is dedicated to developing a life-long passion for learning in all students. We believe every child counts and every child learns and offer hope for a successful future by teaching every child to think. Individual talents and valuable life skills are enriched through our athletic, fine arts and extracurricular programs. We’re a community that pulls together for our kids and develops personal connections with them and their families. At the same time, we’re focused on preparing our students to live and work successfully in the global community of the 21st century. For more information visit www.willisisd.org.
