Yearbook class got a sweet lesson in design! 🍬📚

Students used snacks and candy to explore the key elements of a yearbook spread, from folios and headlines to captions, dominant packages and visual separators. Working in teams, they created unique layouts while putting their communication, leadership and design skills into practice.

This week is also picture week! Check your division notes for more information and smile for the camera!

All parents are invited to the annual Parent Coffee on Friday, August 28, from 7:30 – 9 a.m. at the 815 practice field, down the hill behind the Primary School. This event is a great opportunity to meet fellow parents, see old friends, meet new ones and kick off the 2026-27 school year – plus learn how to get involved with the Walker Parent Association and Wolverine Club.

As part of our exploration of Middle School Fine Arts, our sixth-grade students had a wonderful opportunity this past Saturday to try a variety of musical instruments and discover which one might be the right fit for them.

The morning began with engaging instrument demonstrations, followed by a short concert featuring the local professional 3rd Stream Big Band. Students then had the chance to explore any instrument that interested them, with guidance from faculty members Dr. Kyna Elliott, Todd Motter and Paul Scanling, as well as professional musicians from 3rd Stream Big Band.

It was wonderful to see our future musicians exploring, experimenting, and having so much fun along the way. We are excited to see where their musical journeys take them!

🎓 College reps are on their way!

It’s officially college rep season at Walker! Starting today, August 24, our College Counseling Office will welcome admissions representatives from colleges and universities around the country to campus.

With 50+ college reps already scheduled, plus our first two mini-college fairs coming in September, our students will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions, make connections and learn more about the possibilities that lie ahead.

And while the visits are exciting, they’re just one part of what makes Walker’s College Counseling Program so meaningful. Our counselors take an individualized approach to helping each student discover the colleges and universities that are the best fit for them, while supporting students and families through the application process and preparing them for a successful transition to college.

For our students, college counseling isn’t simply about getting into college. It’s about finding the right next chapter.

Here’s to a great year of conversations, connections and discovering what comes next.

Middle School field day is one of our favorite traditions at Walker! On Friday, teams competed in a World Cup Soccer competition, puzzles and had some fun with a water slide. It was a great way to kick off the new year.
