Mary Walker School District No. 207 Calendar 2026-2027

Springdale’s elementary, middle and high-school stages form the core of a broad rural district north of Spokane. Its regular school route begins with preschool and elementary programs, continues through Springdale Middle School and ends at Mary Walker High School. The schools are close enough to share a strong district identity, yet each stage has its own schedule, teachers and age-specific expectations. Early-learning transportation and family services also make the district an educational entry point before kindergarten.

At the secondary level, agriculture, business, fine arts, athletics and career courses give students several ways to connect school with the region around them. Vocational agriculture and FFA remain important in a farming community, while business, technology, leadership and service activities broaden the program. A small high school uses dual credit and regional partnerships to add courses and experiences that cannot always be staffed locally.

The district’s Alternative Learning Experience gives K–12 families another public-school route. Students enter through an application and planning process, then work under a written learning plan with weekly teacher contact and monthly progress review. Parents may direct much of the daily study, and students can use selected onsite classes, clubs or athletics when the arrangement allows. Mary Walker supports both a conventional three-stage campus progression and a supervised home-centered option, with district teachers and records connecting the two.
