One of our commitments at Walnut Grove is helping families transition from one grade to the next each year, and especially when they’re making big transitions from preschool to kindergarten, elementary school to middle school, and middle school to high school.
That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a special event for our current 5th, 6th, and 8th-grade students to designed to spark excitement about next year: A Day in the Life!
On December 4th, students will step into the shoes of the next grade level!
5th graders will experience 6th grade.
6th graders will preview 7th grade.
8th graders will get a taste of high school.
They’ll attend classes with their future peers, join in exciting activities, enjoy lunch and recess with the next grade, and start imagining what’s ahead as part of the WGCS family!
PLUS December 5th students will attend chapel with their future grade and participate in a student Q&A panel, where they can ask questions and hear firsthand about what’s next. Parents are invited to join us for this special day!
Our hope is that this two-day event would be another way we are helping to care for students during these important transitions in life.
