The Wildkat Word: March 2025
As we enter the final nine weeks of the school year, I want to take a moment to thank our families, staff, and students for their continued partnership and support. Spring brings a busy season—filled with activities, celebrations, and yes, state testing.
While testing provides important data that helps us evaluate progress and identify areas for growth, it is just one piece of the puzzle. True success can’t be measured by a single assessment. It’s reflected in the relationships we build with students, the joy we see in their eyes when a concept clicks, and the everyday moments we share that help them grow into confident, capable young adults.
At Willis ISD, our focus remains on the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally. Thank you for trusting us with your children and for being part of our WildKat family.
With gratitude,
Dr. Kimberley James
Superintendent of Schools
