Martin Walker Elementary principal Kelly Thompson received the Superintendent Coin of Excellence this week from Dr. Hawkins for exemplifying what it means to be a Bulldawg. When a parent recently ran into car trouble during dismissal, she helped that parent's students stay calm and helped jump start that parent's vehicle.
Keep up the great work, Mrs. Thompson! #TheCoveChoice
