Willard is proud to be a top ranked California school.

Willard is the second elementary school in California to be authorized by officials in Geneva, Switzerland as an International Baccalaureate (IB) Elementary School. The IB program is taught through six inquiry based units. Included in the IB program is a foreign language component.

In 2001 Willard became a technology magnet school. Students work to meet National Technology Standards as they use state-of-the-art technology to create projects related to the IB units of inquiry.

Our student enrollment of approximately 600 from Early Childhood through 5th grade reflects the diversity of our city. Willard provides an educational experience addressing all aspects of the child, including social, physical, emotional, and cultural needs in addition to their academic requirements.

The mission of Willard IB Technology Magnet School is to provide a rigorous education through inquiry and investigation, developing well balanced global citizens who are life long learners and critical, compassionate thinkers.

The Willard PTA feels that parent involvement represents a key strategy in promoting student achievement.
