Walnut Creek is an OUTSTANDING example of what a middle school should be! The administration is exceptional! Students and families of this school deserve to be proud of their efforts. I feel very fortunate to be a teacher in this school.
The principal is very accessible at this school. The main complaint I have is the three grades are divided up into two teams, and there are many differences in the teams in each grade.Some teams are alot harder on the students and give alot of busy work, and a team in the same grade has totally different expectations. My son in 7th had a ton more homework and harder tests than his peers on the opposite team, and that becomes frustrating for the sudent. Also one particular team in 7th grade has extremely punitive policies. If you forget something in your locker you get a zero on the assignment, even if you did it. One mistake can lower their grade by a full letter. These policies lower the student's self-esteem, and cause them to totally not like school. One strike your out!
My daughter is in 8th grade at WCMS and she loves it! The kids, teachers, and the general feel of the school are fantastic!
