A Note from Mrs. Jamail...✏️

Hello Walnut Families!


Questions about the DSISD Acceleration Process? If you have questions regarding the acceleration process for your student, please visit the Credit by Exam & Grade Placement page on the district website. This page contains important dates, testing calendars, and referral windows. For a comprehensive overview of the procedures and requirements, you can access the DSISD Acceleration Guide directly here. 


Thank you for supporting our DSISD Special Olympics athletes and celebrating inclusion across DSISD!  We invite you to come out to any of these events to cheer and celebrate participating students!  Special Olympics Update – Basketball, Track, & Tiger Madness

We are looking forward to our Leadership Day where our students will showcase what it means to be Cool, Kind, and Leading the Way through our Leader in Me journey! 

February 5, 2026 from 8:15 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. 

Guests are invited to attend a welcoming assembly, tour classrooms, and check out how our students lead in action at different areas around our school.  From teamwork and responsibility to kindness and confidence, you'll see how our students are growing into leaders - every day, in every way.  Please complete this Leadership Day RSVP form  by February 2, 2026 @3pm, if you plan to attend.  Thank you!  

***Parents, please note:  Leadership Day is not the same as Student Led Conferences.  Student Led Conferences will be held on May 12 for all students during grade-level WIN times in their classrooms.


On February 3, our third grade students will take part in a Reading Stand-Alone Field Test. This field test allows students to gain experience with the testing format while providing valuable feedback for future STAAR assessments. 


Enjoy your day!

~Mrs. Jamail
