sydney hanson: walnut springs was very educational and i learned a lot from going there. the teachers targeted my mistakes and helped me understand what i was doing wrong. I am only in the seventh grade and previously went there in sixth grade. i am currently going to Hilltonia middle school, located in columbus, ohio. i cannot believe the difference in educational help and the amount of sports and extra activities there are. i love walnut springs !
