Campus Spotlight
Each month, the school board gets a glimpse into life on campus. The month of March brought a spotlight on Paula Walker Elementary. Principal Teresa Atkins and Assistant Principal Erika Manning shared a spotlight video with the board and guests showcasing the important work happening in year one of Paula Walker Elementary School. Also in attendance was the school's namesake. Mrs. Atkins shared the many culture building activities that have occurred since opening in August of 2024. A strong community of family supporters and a supportive Waterscape development have welcomed Paula Walker Elementary with open arms. She also bragged about a talented teaching staff that embraces professional learning communities with the goal of growing every single student.
