WALTON PTSA PLANS FOR 2014-2015 SCHOOL YEAR!

As our new theme, WALTONSTRONG: Mind, Body, Spirit suggests, we will strive to promote personal excellence in every student through programs addressing many facets of the Walton experience. Walton High School needs the support of our entire family of parents, staff, students and surrounding community to continue its tradition of distinction.
