Academic Success and Parent Responsibility
Walker Junior High School is a standards-based, academically-focused school. It is our goal to see that every student that promotes from Walker Junior High School has the skills and knowledge to succeed in high school and then be successful in the college or career path of their choice. In order for our staff to achieve this goal, we must work together with every parent. We share the responsibility of your child’s educational success.
Just as you have expectations of the teachers and school, the school has an expectation of every parent.
I understand that as a parent it is my responsibility to:
- create a quiet place for my child to study
- monitor the completion of homework assignments and projects
- communicate with teachers as needed
- support the school, its policies, and its effort to maintain a safe, academic environment where all teachers can teach and every student has an opportunity to learn
- call the school if I have any questions
I understand that as a parent it is my responsibility to ensure that my child:
- arrives on time to each class
- is prepared for class each day
- attends school regularly
- completes all assignments on time
- is respectful
- does not cause or contribute to classroom disruptions
- follows the school dress code
- follows all school rules
We realize that with busy schedules it can be difficult monitoring your student’s progress. We will work to keep you informed. It is our expectation that with a team effort between parent and school, we can ensure that all students learn and meet the goals of attaining the best education possible.
