Help Walnut Hill Elementary after the tornado

Walnut Hill Elementary received the Blue Ribbon Award from the Department of Education three weeks ago, and on the night of Sunday, October 20, was destroyed by a tornado.

Walnut Hill Elementary recibio el premio Blue Ribbon de parte del Departamento de Educaciòn hace tres semanas, la noche del Domingo, 20 de Octubre, fue destruida por un tornado.


This incredible school, established in 1912, had been in that building since 1942 and has been a beloved institution of the neighborhood. The amazing staff, the exemplary academics, and the close-knit family atmosphere of the school have made it a school of choice for families across the Dallas area.

El asombroso personal, ejemplares academicos, y el ambiente familiar de la escuela la ha convertido en una escuela de preferencia para familias a través del area de Dallas.


Late on October 20, a tornado tore suddenly through the Preston Hollow area of Dallas, and Walnut Hill Elementary, Carey Middle School, and Thomas Jefferson High School were hit hard.

As a PTA, we feel fortunate that the district has found a way for the school body to move intact to another building and that all of the classes and staff will be able to stay together, but that transition process and the state of the school building means that the school will be starting over essentially from scratch. Please help us to provide the funds for this transition process - as of now, we are still assessing the needs of the teachers, administration, and students, and your donations will help to provide supplies for the classrooms and students, curriculum, books, anything that we are able to provide to outfit the new building and smooth this transition. 

Thank you so much for your generosity.

Como parte del PTA, nos sentimos afortunados que el distrito encontro una manera para mover al cuerpo escolor intacto a otro edificio y que todas las clases y facultad podran permanecer juntos. Pero ese proceso de transiciòn y el estado en el quedo nuestra escuela significa que tenderemos que empezar de zero. Porfavor ayudenos a prover los recursos para este proceso de transiciòn- ahora todavia estamos determinando las necesidades de nuestros maestros, administracion, y estudiantes. Y sus donaciones ayudaran a prover los utiles necesarios para los salones y estudiantes, curriculo, libros, y cualquier cosa que seamos capaz de propocionar para equipar el nuevo edifico y hacer una transiciòn mas suave. Muchisimas gracias por su generosidad!
