I am greatly disappointed in the leadership at Walton. In the past 5 years, Walton reputation for a "good" has declined. We need to get back on track.
My son is in his 4th year of attending this school. When I was first approached about this school, I was hesitant because of the location. Over the years, this has been the next best decision I could've made. The teachers along with the principal are the best I've seen thus far. Keep up the good work.
Walton has proved to be a school that strives for the best for its students. The academics that are being taught has helped the students learn more and want to continue to learn. Walton also has a wonderful music department. The kids in the choir love to perform at various functions and are well disciplined. The parent involvement is phenomenal! It is very reassuring to go to a school function at Walton and see the parental turnout, support, and involvement with not just their individual child, but with all the children.
I have been very impressed at the leadership and the quality of caring that my boys have received at this school. They transferred in from another JPS school and I am more than happy that I did. The staff is truly dedicated to the overall child.
My child is in KG at Walton. This school has truly changed since I attended. Academically, Walton has improved tremendously but the parental involvement is low due to a lack of principal leadership. You must be willing to hear and understand your parents. Show them that same respect that you would want to be shown to you. A good leader should be a good listener as well! --Carrie Sanders
