Dear Willett Families,

We were glad to welcome students back today (Friday) after four snow days, and it was a great day. Students arrived safely, classes were back on schedule, and we appreciated everyone's patience and flexibility following the historic storm.

Please know that before the decision was made to reopen Friday, administrators worked collectively with the Mayorโ€™s office, the Department of Public Works, our transportation provider, and our facilities team to ensure our students could return safely.

We are continuing to monitor conditions and remain flexible. As they did on Friday, the bus company will continue to pick students up at alternative locations and pick up any students walking to school. Please contact my office directly with any questions or concerns.

Hello from the Health Office,

The Mobile Dentist will be returning to Willett on March 3, 2026.  Since your child was seen earlier this school year, they are scheduled to be seen again.  Please make sure your child is present in school, as the Mobile Dentist will not be returning until next school year.  If you did not have your child see the dentist in September when they were here, but would like to have them seen this time, please send a note requesting a consent form to be sent home.
