Mission: We hold deep beliefs about our uncommon school. Our primary purpose is to help young people become excited, effective lifelong learners. We must provide alternative forms of education, making success more accessible to all students. We must create an environment where scholarship is continually validated, where striving for excellence is acclaimed by all and mutual respect is the order of every day. Structure is something carried within and for which each individual is responsible. School should be based more on research than traditional practices. Through the "process of discovery" ALL Walden students will graduate and be prepared to attend a postsecondary institution of higher learning.
