Completed Mural on MW building

It is my privilege to welcome you to the 2020-21 school year at MLWGS!  While we can all certainly agree that there are significant challenges ahead of us, we are confident that we have skills to navigate these strange times and continue to be the successful community that we have always been.  We are in this together and we will overcome it together!  It is The Walker Way!

We look forward to traveling with you on your journey toward graduation and beyond.  Best wishes for another fantastic school year. 

Go Dragons!
