The Georgia Association of Educational Leaders (GAEL) has recognized the Walton County School District with a 2022-23 GAEL Vision Award.

The Vision Award recognizes school districts that are committed to encouraging and supporting teachers, principals and district office staff in professional learning.  

“We believe that professional development plays an important role in helping us develop and maintain high-performance teams at the district and school levels,” said Superintendent Nathan Franklin. “It is important that we provide our staff with opportunities to engage in continuous learning and, in turn, positively impact student success.”

The Vision Award was presented during the GAEL Winter Conference, January 22-24, in Athens.
