E.D. Walker Middle School Nominees

WOW!!!! So many AMAZING nominees! Many of the above candidates were nominated multiple times and all comments were combined together.


Please note: it was important for us to share ALL the candidates who were nominated and the amazing comments from their colleagues. However, Dallas ISD has the following eligibility criteria: must have completed 3 years of credible service, must have an effectiveness level of Proficient I or above, and must have not served as a campus winner in the last 3 years. Therefore, when you receive the ballots on Monday you may notice some of these superstar teachers not listed due to 1 of the 3 criteria.

Additional Nomination Comments

"Our school is DOPE!"


"I didn't bring lunch today."


"Everyone is doing a great job!"


"I really wanted to vote for Mr. Briones as teacher or staff... he is the one who is always ready to help. He always solves my doubts, also as a first-year teacher, every time I have a question or I need advice, he always answers with a smile and makes me feel that I am doing a good job, even though sometimes I think differently, and encourages me to continue trying. Thank you, Mr. Briones"


"This was not an easy decision because the entire staff deserves to be recognized."


"It's going to be SO HARD to choose just 1!"
