Walker - Fifth Grade

My name is Karen Walker. I am a native of Santa Fe, New Mexico and a graduate of St. Michaels High School! I attended New Mexico State University where I majored in Education and was a cheerleader, and then became the head coach of the Division 1, nationally ranked Aggies! I also met my husband, Decatur native, Rodney Sky Walker, who played for the Aggies! I traveled overseas to many countries with Rodney while playing professional basketball internationally! We got married in one of our favorite countries, Australia! I was also very fortunate to coach the Cheerleaders of Rodney’s Australian team. After years of being abroad, we returned to the states to start our family in Decatur. We have a 12 year old son name R.J and a 9 year old daughter name Sydney Sky! I have been teaching in DPS 61 for 18 years! I have been at Durfee for 14 years! I love the kids and I love to teach! I look forward to seeing some of our kids develop into future scholars.
