📚👟 Bringing books to life at Walton Oaks!

Our students have been reading Holes by Louis Sachar and brought the story off the page by designing their own shoes! We love combining reading with hands-on activities that encourage creativity and make learning fun. 🎨📖

Our students are cooking up something special!

Through our Culinary Arts Club in partnership with the_jnsa, students from our Walton Oaks and Walton Green Adventure Centers are learning new skills and discovering the creativity involved in preparing food.

A special thank you to Chef Sarah from Fifth & Finch for joining us and teaching the students how to make their own pizzas!

We’re grateful for community partners who help us introduce students to new experiences and possibilities. ❤️

Yesterday was our first day back at the Walton Oaks and Walton Green Adventure Centers! 🎉📚

We loved welcoming our students back for another school year filled with homework help, learning, and plenty of fun. We’re excited for all that this year will bring as we continue walking alongside our students and helping them grow! 🌳💚

Here’s to a great school year!

Our high school interns spent yesterday learning and preparing to lead! Through training and hands-on development, they are gaining the skills and confidence needed to serve our younger students well and thrive beyond the classroom.

We are proud of their willingness to learn and excited to see how God uses their gifts this year. This is what raising up the next generation of Christ-centered leaders looks like!
