Every year, the Galena Park ISD Education Foundation hosts the Annual Academic Recognition Banquet also known as the Dazzling Diamonds Gala. This event has the purpose to honor the top 5% of graduating seniors from Galena Park ISD. In addition, each distinguished scholar recognizes a current Galena Park ISD employee who has had the most significant positive influence on his or her education and life.
I have been very fortunate to be honored by some of these top graduates. These awards coming from my students are the best professional recognition I can receive as a teacher. They overpay by much all the hard work done every day in the classroom, and the many hours of class preparation.
