The Walden School - Sugar Land Texas

Dedicated to providing family oriented quality early childhood and educational programming for children
ages 6 weeks through 13 years of age

If you're looking for a solution to your early childhood needs, or a program for your school age children, the answer can be as easy as a visit to the Walden School. Your children as young as 6 weeks of age and up to as mature as 13 years have a special place here where a nurturing environment and caring staff help your children grow and flourish.

Our philosophy makes the Walden School a child friendly environment. Parents too will find that being involved with the Walden School is more than a partnership in raising their children. Open communication with staff and directors is encouraged, and a variety of activities are planned especially to involve parents in special events in their child's school activities. Our emphasis is directly and indirectly focused on children's self esteem through developmentally appropriate skill practice and activities.

Our preschool and pre-kindergarten classes help ready children for their successive years in elementary classes. Our kindergarten program successfully melds phonics and whole language programs to develop strong reading skills; along with our hands on Math Their Way programs, children develop a solid base on which to continue to learn. Our first through fifth grades continue to excite children about learning as well as helping to develop strong study skills. Smaller classes and more one to one contact with their teacher during the day, help children succeed in mastering subject matter.

A Little Help for the Holidays
Once again we are so pleased to be able to tell you about the kind hearted contributions made by The Walden School families to House of Tiny Treasures during our December Community Service Project.

Each year Walden families have opened their hearts and wallets to provide much needed items for the young children and siblings served by this small school and their homeless families. The Walden families provided an outfit with shoes and socks for each child, and a toy. Forty-four children in all had a much happier holiday thanks to your generosity

The Walden Staff would like to thank everyone who contributed to the collection of funds to give each teacher a very generous gift card from the Walden families and children. It is so appreciated, and quite useful to each one of us.

A very special thank you to Holly Doffing, and Elizabeth Lorber for organizing and carrying out the purchase and distribution of the gift cards.

Gymnastics and Dance
Spring classes will begin the week of January 9. Look for spring class sign-up forms. Spring-recital dance costume fees are due this month. Please see the bulletin board for pictures of your child’s costume.

Homework Room
Walden students in Kindergarten and above have access to a homework hour each Monday through Thursday from 4:30 to 5:30. Parents may request their child be monitored in attending. Please pick up an After school Homework Sign-up Sheet in the office, and let us know your preferences in regard to your child.
