If you want the best possible faith based education for your daughter you will send her, or them, to The Willows Academy. The education they will receive at The Willows will be far better than any of the Chicagoland failing public schools, as well as superior to the mediocre education provided by the Archdiocese of Chicago. The average ACT score is 35 and Willows graduates have their choice of Universities.

Best school for girls. My daughter made lifetime friends and was challenged academically which prepared her for college. The teachers were exceptional. I would recommend this school highly.
