Non-PTA Sponsored Enrichment Programming: For your scheduling convenience, we have tried to include as much of the non-PTA sponsored enrichment programming to help you with your personal planning. These activities will have their own registration and contact person(s). Some of these include: Y.O.U., Photography Club, Girls Play Sports, etc. You will notice that Girls Coding and Drama Club are also available to register via Homeroom! Walker Y.O.U. Fact Sheet 2019-2020
Schedule: Please note that the schedule is available to you in two formats – the first one is for timing and scheduling and then, the second one is with cost for registration. Registration should take place through http://bit.ly/WalkerEnrichment for the majority of these enrichment offerings.
