New Families
Welcome to the Willard School community!
Whether you are new to Concord or a long-time resident who is only new to Willard, the PTG is here to help smooth your transition into the school.
1. Get Registered
Once you have established your Concord address, registering your child for Willard is now an online process. Follow the instructions on the district webpage.
2. Get Informed
Sign up for the Willard Weekly, our PTG newsletter!
We know that getting to know a new school involves more than just making friends and meeting new people. You probably have a lot of questions on logistical items such as school bus schedules, understanding Willard’s lunch offerings, what supplies to buy, and many more things.
An updated version of the new family FAQs page is up, and you can also read information sent by the superintendent and by our principal Matt Lucey.
3. Get to know us
We would love to meet you! Feel free to:
Email us at presidents@willardptg.org or the new family coordinators newfamily@willardptg.org, with any questions or just to say hello.

Keep your eyes open for PTG events as we get them up and running through PTG website and Willard Weekly
In addition, once your child has been assigned to a classroom, we encourage you to also seek out your “Room Parents". Find out who they are by emailing roomparent@willardptg.org.
These are parents/guardians of your child’s classmates who have volunteered to be a contact person for classroom-specific items and an assistant to the teacher for non-curriculum tasks. Room Parents and your child’s teacher are great resources for classroom-related questions.
4. Get involved!
By being active in the Willard PTG, you can familiarize yourself with Willard School and be a positive part of your child’s educational experience at the same time. There are many opportunities to help out at levels to suit any schedule. Whether you are available during the school day or only on weekends…once a week, once a month or once a year…there is a role for you. Come to a PTG meeting to learn more - they are announced in the Willard Weekly and board meetings are open to all - and check out our volunteer opportunities!
