“The passion for Walker comes from having seen how wonderful it is for my children and wanting to support that, continue encouraging that and on some level, pay that forward to future generations.”
– James Eubanks, Walker Board Chair
The members of the Board of Trustees are a diverse and dedicated group of business and community leaders who provide oversight governance for The Walker School.
