WDSS first opened its doors on Yonge St. Walkerton on September 1, 1951. Enrolment was just over 300 students, with a staff of 13 teachers.

In 2008 the Bluewater District School Board released their plans for a combined K–12 school to replace Brant Central, Walkerton Public and Walkerton District Secondary schools.[1]

In September 2012 the new Walkerton District Community School opened its doors.
