Would compare to Pace in Atlanta. Not much of a private school compared to the several highly ranked Cobb County public high schools that are nearby.

Our children attend The Walker School and we could not be happier with our experience in the preschool and lower school. Our children have very different interests, learning styles, and personalities. Both have thrived with the individual attention that is given--small classes and a great teacher to student ratio are so important. We feel that the partnership between parents, teachers, and administration is strong and look forward to all that the middle and upper school have to offer. more

I agree! Definitely not worth the money! They are clearly stronger at marketing themselves than academics! It is more a business than a school. Despite the millions they pull in each year, they are far behind with technology (can't see grades or attendance online in lower school) and have not improved the curriculum. It's the same as 10 years ago! They have far too many teachers with one foot in the "retirement door". The teachers and administrators don't listen to the parents. They are more focused on money than children!! Their reputation has gone down hill! more

  • The Walker School is the college-preparatory independent school for families seeking an engaging educational experience within an intimately scaled, caring and diverse community where opportunities abound and meaningful relationships inspire transformative learning.


    Walker’s dedicated teachers exude contagious intellectual energy, demonstrate authentic interest in the life of the mind that extends beyond their core subject areas, and model genuine respect for students and one another.

    Through their actions and interactions, Walker teachers cultivate students’ spirit of wanting to know in every setting—the classroom and the hallway, the laboratory and the library, the art studio and the stage, the court and the playing field.

    Walker students, feeling known and encouraged by their teachers and classmates, come to value the experience over the applause, developing along the way the confidence to explore new avenues of thinking, the wisdom to articulate meaningful insights, and the fortitude to act with integrity and honor.

    At the culmination of this carefully guided, increasingly independent journey from pre-K through grade 12, Walker graduates have evolved from curious young learners into critically thinking, individually expressive, confidently collaborative, and admirably honest young adults thoroughly prepared for the intellectual and relational challenges of college and life.
