Walton High School

Congratulations to Mrs. Warren and Mrs. Burnham on being the first two recipients of the WON-ONE award! At the beginning of the 2023-2024 school year, Superintendent A. Russell Hughes unveiled a challenge to all employees of the District, and he calls it “WON-ONE”…the challenge was to find that ONE student struggling and WIN them to change the trajectory of their lives. You may hear him ask “Have you won-one?” Which is asking if you’ve WON that ONE student - the #WON-ONE award is among the highest honors in the District.

Our freshmen toured Northwest Florida State College's Niceville campus today (October 11). Students learned about the educational opportunities offered by the college, including dual enrollment, two- and four-year degrees, and many technical degrees.

Anchor Club hosted their tapping initiation on September 11, 2023. This is a long-standing tradition at Walton High School. Anchor members delivered their A's and "tapped" new members by asking them to do something silly: dance, sing, put on a short performance, etc.

Congratulations to our JV football team for their 34-32 win (in double overtime) against Fort Walton Beach on September 7!

The Walton County School District leadership visited the Florida Capitol last week to learn more about the inner-workings of legislation and how to influence legislation for the betterment of children.
