🐾 PAW-sitively Awesome: Mr. Walker! 🐾

Kennedale ISD is proud to celebrate the dedicated staff members who go above and beyond for our students, campuses, and community through our PAW (Paw-sitively Awesome Wildcat) Awards! 💚

Today, we’re shining a spotlight on Mr. Walker from James F. Delaney Elementary, who received nearly 20 PAW Awards last school year, with many of them coming directly from his students! 🐾

Students and colleagues recognized Mr. Walker for the way he makes math engaging and understandable, encourages his students, and always takes the extra time to help them succeed. From staying late to help students to building meaningful relationships and reminding them that they are capable, his impact goes far beyond the classroom.

The kind words from his students say it best: Mr. Walker is kind, encouraging, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile. We’re so thankful for the difference he makes every day! 💚

Thank you, Mr. Walker, for being a truly PAW-sitively Awesome Wildcat and for the lasting impact you continue to make in the lives of our students! 🐾

📣 Know a Kennedale ISD employee who deserves a PAW Award?
Staff, students, parents, and community members are encouraged to nominate a KISD employee who makes a difference. Recipients receive a printed certificate, and the names of all recipients each month are read during school board meetings.
