In order to be eligible as an Academically High-Performing School District the following rigorous criteria must be met:
- District must earn an “A” grade for at least two consecutive years.
- No schools earning an “F” grade.
- Comply with all state class size requirements.

Superintendent A. Russell Hughes says this accomplishment is made possible by the dedication to excellence of our teachers, support personnel, administrators, school board, parents, and students. “I am elated to have this designation assigned to the Walton County School District. We work with intentionality to ensure things happen the right way. This designation shows that we have done the right thing for children and it goes hand-in-hand with our commitment to being EPIC in Walton County. I’m excited for our teachers, our board, our administrators, our staff, and our community. I am proud and humbled to continue to lead this charge in the Walton County School District for all stakeholders.”
