At Walnut Elementary, staff, students, and families work in partnership to foster an inclusive environment where all students grow academically, artistically, and socially. Walnut's devoted staff members share a common philosophy of excellence in instruction and the belief that the elementary experience sets the foundation for a lifetime of learning.

Walnut uses much of its Title 1 grant to hire additional credentialed teachers to support both academic intervention and enrichment. Students participate in focused, small group instruction each day during Target Time to target just what they need to grow, whether that is extra academic support, additional practice, or enrichment. Walnut also invests in the arts and digital technology for a well-rounded educational experience. Along with regular music, art, PE, and dance/movement instruction, all of our students participate in a grade-level musical each year that reinforces concepts they are studying in class.

Our Create Club recess option allows students' imaginations to run free as they experiment with a variety of materials (mostly recycled items) to make their own creations. The counseling and social-emotional team operates the Peace Room, where students can come to find peace within themselves or in their relationships at school.

Walnut is a Certified Kindness School, which fits well with our motto: "Walnut: Where Everyone Belongs!"
