A little WELC love followed our Cardinals to first grade!

Our kindergarten teachers made a special trip to Bell to welcome their former students who are now FIRST GRADERS! 🥹📚

There’s nothing sweeter than seeing those familiar little faces, giving hugs, and reminding them that their kindergarten teachers will always be cheering them on. ❤️

Our school foyer now features a small memorial honoring the extraordinary Dolly Parton. 🦋

Dolly has meant so much to music, to Kentucky, and to every child who ever opened a book thanks to her big heart. The very best way we can keep her spirit alive is to do exactly what she loved most: get our kids excited about reading! 📚

If you have a child from birth up to age 5, we encourage you to sign them up for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library! Registered children receive a free, high-quality, age-appropriate book mailed to their home every single month. Registrations can be done online at https://imaginationlibrary.com/kentucky/ .

Please be advised that the website is currently experiencing a higher than normal volume of visitors.

To Register or Learn More:

Construction may have us learning to “pivot” around WELC, but one thing remains unchanged, the heart of this place. 🦺 🔨

It’s not about the building we share… it’s about the people we share it with. The laughter, teamwork, patience, flexibility, and willingness to make it work for our students.

And we’re extra thankful for our cafeteria staff, who continue to serve our students with a smile and help keep things running smoothly, no matter what construction throws our way.

WELC staff, we’re proving that we’ll keep showing up, working together, and making it happen. Because the heart of WELC lives here. In us. For every child. Every day. ❤️🖤

The votes are in: the first day of school at Walker Early Learning Center was a massive success! 📚

Our Little Cardinals fluttered into their classrooms today bringing all the joy, the excitement, and smiles. Our teachers dove right into the fun—and honestly, they deserve a gold star (and a nap) for keeping everyone pointing in the same direction!

We managed to capture so many precious moments of learning, laughing, and appreciating all the new changes to our building. Take a peek at the photo gallery below for a look at our day! 📸✨

❤️ A Huge Thank You to Our Families ❤️

Thank you for trusting us with your precious little ones today. Whether your morning involved tearful goodbyes or watching your little one sprinting toward the entrance while yelling "Bye Mom!", you survived the first-day right along with us! We wish you a good night's rest, and we'll see you tomorrow to do it all again!
