Walnut Grove is excited to continue to partner with Burrell to offer short student sessions. This month we focused on ‘Navigating Friendships.’ This opportunity helped provide students skills that support kindness,
connection, and positive peer relationships. Students were able to grab a friendship bracelet on their way out as well!

JH All-District Honor Band met last Saturday. After auditioning, selected students come together for a rehearsal and perform in a concert under a guest clinician/conductor.
It is designed to bring together strong band players from multiple schools in the region so they can experience a higher-level ensemble and performance. Avery Shuler, Brooklyn Molder, & Mason Beadles performed in large bands made up of 7th and 8th grade students from across the South Central area.  What a great opportunity! We are so thankful for Mrs. Swope and her devotion to our Walnut Grove Band Program.
