Willowbrook High School uses Family Connection from Naviance, a web-based service designed especially for students and parents. Family Connection is a comprehensive website you can use to help in making decisions about colleges and careers. Family Connection is a service we use in the Counseling Office to track and analyze data about our students' college and career plans. Family Connection will allow you to:

  • Get involved in the planning and advising process: Build a résumé, complete online surveys and manage timelines and deadlines for making decisions about colleges and careers
  • Perform interest inventory and personality assessments, which will link matching career options
  • Research colleges: Compare GPA, standardized test scores and other statistics to actual historical data from students who have already applied from our high school
  • Sign up for college visits: Find out which colleges are visiting our school, and sign up to attend those sessions
  • Request college transcripts and track application data
