Parent Education Series: Understanding the Lifelong Benefits of Fitness and Team Sports for Girls
2024-04-09 19:30 - 20:15
We are thrilled to invite you to join us for the sixth edition of our year-long speaker series titled Understanding the Whole Child: A Walker’s Parent Education Series. Inspired by our School values, and anchored by the community of experts assembled at the School, we developed the series in an effort to equip Walker’s families with knowledge and tools to best support their students throughout their Walker’s journey. Each session will include both a presentation and an opportunity for questions and answers.

This session will address the developmental advantages of exercise and team activities for girls on their mental, emotional, and physical well-being. While highlighting the value in participation during formative years, this session will also inform on the value of building lifelong habits, confidence, and body autonomy through fitness.

Reading and Book Signing with Carmen Giménez
2024-03-28 19:00 - 20:30
Carmen Giménez, our spring Visiting Writer, will be on campus March 26-29. We welcome the Walker’s community, as well as the general public, to attend a reading with Ms. Giménez on Thursday, March 28 at 7:00 p.m. in Ferguson Theatre. Refreshments and book signing to follow.

The Ethel Walker School Visiting Writer Seminar is a semester-long course in which students have the rare and special opportunity to immerse themselves in a study of one writer’s works, something few students of English at the undergraduate and graduate levels experience. Throughout the semester, students read a critical mass of texts by that writer, developing a deep and abiding knowledge of that writer’s style, form(s), and ideas. The course culminates with a visit by the author to Walker’s. Through master classes, writing workshops, and readings to the community, students are invited to ask the questions that only the author can answer. At the end of each semester, students in the Visiting Writer Seminar collaborate on a final project in which they conceptualize, layout, design, and publish a class anthology of works, inspired by the writings of the visiting writer.
