The Willows Unified School District serves the greater south central area of Glenn County. The District was formed in 1966, bringing together five small school districts with the goal of providing more and better educational opportunities for students in this area.

Willows Unified School District test scores have consistently been in the range of 700-785, and the District takes pride in its high student achievement. There are no program improvement status schools in the district. We are proud of our safe, well-maintained and drug-free schools.
