Our beloved willow tree fell in the windstorm last night. The students have so many memories of the gifts we have received from this tree over many years. Thanks to an amazing Willow Wind parent, we have young willows grown from the old tree flourishing on the property. Today students are sharing their memories and planning ways to honor and remember our old willow friend!
