Dear Rocky Creek Families,
My name is Shunda Walker and I warmly welcome you to Rocky Creek Elementary School. I am delighted to serve as the Instructional Specialist at RCE this year. I am also excited about the rewarding instructional experiences that will take place.
About Me
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I bring to the school 17 years of experience and was named Rocky Creek Elementary's 2011-2012 Teacher of the year. I am happily married to an educator and have two lovely daughters (Taja and Jyra). We have an adorable Bishon Frise puppy (Polo) and a tank full of fish. My educational journey began at Troy State University, where I obtained my B.S. in Elementary Education. I later achieved my Masters, specializing in Reading and Literacy from Walden University. I recently received my Doctoral degree in Educational Leadership.
I enjoy watching children learn and prosper in a caring, community-oriented environment. My belief is that all children have the ability to learn. Each child has his/her own style of learning and not every child will construct knowledge in the same manner. My goal as the Instructional Specialist is to support teachers in providing students with a positive and engaging learning experience.
Communication
I also believe that communication is the key to a great parent-teacher-coach relationship. With your help, we can be partners in education. I have created a website with you in mind. I encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or concerns at any time. You can email me at shunda.walker@henry.k12.ga.us or call me at 770-707-1469.
Dr. Walker
