Principal’s Message

Greetings WCLL Students and Families,

Zannetta WalkerWelcome to the 2025–2026 school year. I have learned that every day is a new beginning filled with joy, hope, and promise. With that, we are excited to welcome both new and returning students and families to WCLL!

Our Mission

The mission of Wisconsin Conservatory of Lifelong Learning is to provide K4-12 students with an urban comprehensive teaching and learning environment grounded in lifelong learning values to achieve academic, personal, employability skills, and civic excellence.

Our dedicated staff has been preparing engaging and rigorous learning experiences to ensure a productive and enjoyable school year. Our curriculum offers a wide variety of enriching programs with student centered support including Art, Library Media, PE/Health, Music, Foreign Language, Service Learning, Career and College Tours, and Learning Journeys, that are designed to support and engage students in meaningful and diverse learning experiences. If your child needs extra help, we offer tutoring and credit recovery programs throughout the year.

Daily attendance is crucial for academic success; please ensure your child attends school every day and arrives on time. The school day is 8:00 a.m. 3:25 p.m. If your child is absent or tardy, please call the main office before 8:30 a.m.

We are laser-focused on improving academic outcomes for ALL students, and we need our parents and caregivers to partner with us. We look forward to a fantastic school year filled with growth, learning, and success for every student.

Thank you for your ongoing support and partnership in your child’s education.

Z. Walker, Ed.D.
Instructional Leader/Principal
