Summary

Walker Park Elementary School in Monroe, GA, serves 755 students in grades PK–5 as part of the Walton County School District, and has earned a 3-star rating with a statewide rank of 369 out of 1,219 elementary schools—a significant jump of 187 spots from the previous year.

The school's standout strength is mathematics. In 5th grade, 57.3% of students scored proficient or above, well ahead of the district average (50%) and state average (44.1%), and dramatically higher than nearby Yargo Elementary (22.5%) and Bay Creek Elementary (25%). Math proficiency is also remarkably consistent across grade levels—ranging from 54.2% in 4th grade to 57.3% in 5th grade—suggesting strong, vertically aligned instruction. The school has also made impressive progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 18.9% in 2021-2022 to just 11.5% now, which is far better than the district rate of 17.8% and comparable to top-performing peers like Youth Elementary (10.3%). Additionally, the school has invested in smaller class sizes, improving its student-teacher ratio from 15.8 to 13.8 over two years.

While math is a clear strength, 5th grade science (43.6% proficient) sits right at the state average and below the district average, indicating room for growth. The school also shows a notable gap in performance between female students (73rd percentile statewide) and male students (65th percentile). Still, Walker Park's overall trajectory is positive—its ranking has improved in four of the last five years, and it outperforms many nearby schools in the Barrow County district, such as Kennedy Elementary and Austin Road Elementary. For parents, this is a school that has found momentum, with strong math outcomes, improving attendance, and a clear commitment to investing in student success.
