Small school with good learning opportunities. Especially appreciate the openness to improving that Is seen between administration, school board, teachers and community. Could use improvements in grounds keeping but that is limited because of budget.

Walton high school has great opportunities for students. Including taking career courses at the nearby trade school when they get to be juniors and seniors. The school has a great arts and atgletics though they could give some money to other areas instead of giving football team new jerseys every year. I attended this high school and believe the teachers are great and care about the students and their sucess. The push kids to do their best and prepare them for their college careers and lives.
