We encourage you to tour our school with our Leadership Team if you're interested in enrolling your child(ren) at Walden Academy.
That's the best way to determine if the school is the right fit.

Walden always holds enrollment periods for Kindergarten, but enrollment periods for grades 1-8 depend on the number of slots available.

If your child is placed on the waiting list, we will call you and send you a letter if a vacancy occurs. You will then have 72 hours to enroll your child -- if you fail to do so, we will contact the parents of the next child on the list.
