Parent resources

Canvas is the resource where students access tasks, assignments, grades, and communicate with their teachers.  

Parents and students have separate sites to log in and will see different information.  It is recommended parents download both the parent and student app so you can see as much information as possible about your student.

The parent app is blue
and the student app is red. 

For parent credentials, please contact the Walker administration. 

Students should get in the habit of looking on Canvas daily to check assignments.

More information is available to see on the desktop version of Canvas.  

Walker Middle Magnet PTSA hosts the private Facebook group Walker Middle Magnet Transportation Forum, as a courtesy to our Walker families. 

It is a place for coordinating transportation options for Walker Middle Magnet.

To join this group, please visit the private Facebook group

TIP: Use a permanent marker to write your child's name on EVERYTHING

A public elementary, middle, or high school whose curricula are theme-based and technology-rich. Magnet school teachers are specially trained not only in theme integration but also in innovative and rigorous academic instructional methods. Magnet schools offer students opportunities to discover, explore, and refine their talents and interests while focusing on excellence in academics. Our magnet schools support the district’s mission to provide all students the knowledge and skills necessary to reach their highest potential. Our magnet philosophy maintains that magnet schools "connect kids to the real world.”

Growth, access, and outcomes of the IB in the United States 

The IB has released a first-of-its-kind report entitled The International Baccalaureate in the United States: Growth, access and outcomes. The report delves into the latest data related to IB participation and growth in the US—particularly among traditionally underserved student populations—as well as research outcomes for IB students. The report is an extension of the IB’s commitment to equitable access for all students to rigorous and holistic education that meets top international standards.
