About Walnut Hill Elementary/Middle School

Walnut Hill Elementary/Middle School is a bit different because it covers a wider age range. Across Louisiana, math proficiency usually rests in the mid-forties to low-fifties, and Walnut Hill tends to land somewhere around the middle of that spread. Parents say the school feels steady but active, especially with older students around. When comparing academic options, South Highlands and Eden Gardens often show higher numbers for younger grades, but Walnut Hill appeals to families who want a single school for several years. Three-bedroom rentals near this part of Shreveport often fall around the low-to-mid $1,400s. For high school, students sometimes move toward Captain Shreve or other regional paths, and alumni from the area have gone into welding, business management, and community service work. Walnut Hill feels like a practical school choice with long-term stability.
