After collaborating with local and state weather experts, the Walton County School District has made the decision to close schools on both Tuesday and Wednesday, January 21 and 22 due to a Winter Storm. The closure includes students and employees as well as SPICE and extra curricular activities. Walton may begin to see precipitation to include ice on Tuesday afternoon which will make it unsafe for school buses to be on roads and bridges. Wednesday may continue to see freezing temperatures which may keep ice on the roadways. We will continue to monitor the weather, as safety is always our number one priority. At this time, we expect to be back at school on Thursday, January 23. Stay safe, and continue to stay engaged with your schools and our online platforms for more information.

🚨 Update on Track Tryouts 🚨 Due to concerns over incoming weather, Freeport Middle School Track Tryouts have been moved to Thursday, January 23rd, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. 📍 Location: Freeport Middle School 📧 For any questions, please contact Coach Cole at owen.cole@walton.k12.fl.us.
