WALKER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Walker Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Santa Ana Unified school district, located in Santa Ana, CA with about 447 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 16 teachers, Walker Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 27:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Beyond its standard curriculum, the school acts as a community hub that prioritizes student engagement and social-emotional growth. Educators at Walker typically work to address the unique needs of a multicultural student body, offering resources that aim to bridge achievement gaps and encourage parental involvement.
