Mrs. Jennifer Walker

Hello, my name is Jennifer Walker. I am very excited to be your child's teacher this year. This is my 4th year teaching 1st grade and my 6th year teaching elementary. I also taught kindergarten for 2 years. My family and I are very excited to be part of the Waynesville/St. Robert/ Ft. Leonard Wood community. 

My husband and I have two sons. We also have 2 goats and 2 dogs named Ellie and Little Bill. We enjoy spending time together and taking road trips. 

I received my Bachelor of Arts in 2005 in Intercultural Studies. I enjoyed learning about different cultures and languages. I later went on to complete my Masters of Art in Teaching ( Elementary Education) in 2016. 

I am proud to have grown up in a military family with all of the challenges of deployments and moves. My father served in the US Navy for 13 years and my husband served 8 years in the US Army. My life experiences as a military child and a military spouse help me relate to my students and their own unique set of opportunities. 

This is my third year being a part of the Wood Elementary School family.
