Thank you for your patience during Orientation this week as we implemented our new online membership system. We apologize for any delays that were caused. Registering your family's information in the system only has to be completed one time. Your family's information will be kept in the system for next year, making your entry in the directory, as well as the purchasing of your PTSA membership, calendar, and directory for next year a much simpler process. If you have not signed up on line yet, and would like to be included in the school directory, please go to waltonptsa.org to register. As always, we are extremely thankful for your support and we are looking forward to another exciting school year for our Walton students.

Spirit Shop: Visit the Spirit Shop for all your Walton spirit wear! The Spirit Shop is located next to the Commons and is open most Fridays from 10:30 - 1:30. We will also be open during Open House on August 19th. Although Target, Walmart and Kroger are selling Walton spirit wear, none of the profits from those sales go back to the school. If you purchase from the Spirit Shop, all profits benefit Walton. Please support the Spirit Shop!!
Volunteers needed for WEB attendance: Would you like to get involved at Walton this year? Join the WEB Volunteer committee and get the opportunity to interact with students, staff and parents. You would be involved in checking students out of school on WEB days and learn about some of the inner workings of the school. As a volunteer, you may choose between two convenient afternoon shifts. WEB is typically on Wednesdays and begins at 12:45 to 3:45PM. WEB is an excellent opportunity for the students to catch up on their studies and get one on one help from their teachers. Walton relies on parent volunteers to make this valuable time possible. Please consider joining the WEB Volunteer committee. Thank you! You can email Martha Stevens at mangelstevens@gmail.com or sign up at the link below here.
