Students in Walton County School District continue in the pursuit of learning during the summer months through the Summer Bridge program! 

Students from Walton Middle School, as well as Walton High School work hard to enhance their skills and knowledge in preparation for an EPIC school year in 2018-2019

Before the school year ended, the Walton Education Foundation presented two-year college scholarships to nine deserving Walton Middle School students.  These students will be provided a mentor and will be expected to maintain a certain GPA throughout the remainder of their high school years.  The scholarship will cover the cost of tuition for their first two years of college.  Congratulations to these WMS students!
