Welcome to Walker-Winter

Mission Statement

Walker celebrates doing our personal best, active listening, truthfulness, trustworthiness, no put-downs and learning for all. 

GETTING READY FOR M-STEP!

M-STEP testing will begin shortly after Spring Break and continue through the end of April. During this time, our 3rd–5th grade students will be participating in the state assessment. We encourage families to help students be prepared by ensuring they get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and arrive at school on time each day. We are proud of the hard work our students have put in this year and look forward to cheering them on during testing!

Board of Education Names New Superintendent

Last night marked a meaningful milestone for our district. Following several months of community input, stakeholder engagement, and robust public participation, the Wayne-Westland Community Schools Board of Education conducted final interviews with three outstanding candidates for our next Superintendent.

Following those interviews, the Board voted to appoint Dr. Catherine Cost as the next Superintendent of Wayne-Westland Community Schools, effective July 1, 2026 — pending successful contract negotiations.

The Board is deeply grateful to every community member who completed a survey, attended a forum, or shared feedback that helped define the qualities we sought in our next leader. 

We are excited about what lies ahead. Dr. Cost joins a district supported by an engaged community and a dedicated team of educators committed to the success of every child. Together, we have every reason to look forward with confidence and optimism.

Please join the Board of Education in warmly welcoming Dr. Catherine Cost to the Wayne-Westland family. The best is yet to come.

With gratitude,

Wayne-Westland Community Schools Board of Education
