School is horrible, would not recommend. My child has been neglected by school staff and dismissed very much. Counselors do not care about mental health. 0 stars

As a current high school student who attended Walker Junior High School, my experience was positive, but there are some important things future students should know.Walker focuses heavily on project-based learning rather than traditional knowledge-based learning, and while that helps build creativity, collaboration, and presentation skills, it doesn’t directly prepare students for the structure at Kennedy High School (more unit tests). I took all honors classes in junior high and continue to take honors classes in high school, and the shift is noticeable (especially in honors science). High school requires much stronger test-taking skills, studying, and content memorization, so be prepared to adjust and learn how to study effectively for exams.In terms of safety, during my time there, the school felt relatively safe. There were minimal fights, and most issues could be avoided by making smart choices. Your experience really depends on who you surround yourself with. If you stick with the right people, stay focused on your academics, and avoid unnecessary drama, you’ll be fine.It’s honestly sad to see Walker currently rated 3/10, especially since less than three years ago, it was at a 6/10. I know school ratings can scare some families, but from my experience, your success there depends largely on how much you challenge yourself. If you take rigorous classes, work hard, and use junior high as a transition period to build strong habits, you can create a solid foundation for high school.Overall, Walker can be a good stepping stone, as long as you take responsibility for your own growth.

King is amazing. My kids have been going to King since pre-K and my son is in six grade now we absolutely love it there it’s like one huge family. I highly recommend this school
