We invite everyone to join our PTA and have a voice in our school community! Willard is named for 19th century feminist reformer and educator, Frances Willard.

Willard Elementary School PTA's mission is to make every Willard child's potential a reality by engaging and empowering Willard families and the broader Evanston community. Willard Elementary is one of the largest elementary schools in District 65 with more than 500 students. Our students live in northwest and central Evanston, helping our school reflect the rich diversity that is part of Evanston's history and culture. A prominent woman of her era, her home in Evanston is a historic landmark.
