This month’s Staff Spotlight shines on Tami Northern, Walker Elementary’s dedicated Administrative Assistant, and Café Clerk, known for her warmth and commitment to the school community. Over the past five years, Tami has become a vital part of Walker, building personal connections with students, families, and staff. She goes above and beyond in her role—whether it’s taking time to tend to students, thoughtfully checking in with parents, or keeping the school organized and running smoothly.

Tami genuinely cares and works tirelessly to keep Walker welcoming. She puts her heart into every detail, from tidying up over the weekend to managing the tech and supply closets. Tami also has a deep-rooted connection to Walker and is dedicated to helping every student feel happy and at home.

One of Tami’s favorite aspects of her job is making a difference in the lives of those she meets. Her positive impact is evident in her daily interactions; her thoughtfulness brings a bright spot to everyone’s day.

For fun, Tami loves family vacations with her husband and two daughters. And here’s a fun twist: she and Mrs. Pruden share a unique favorite ice cream flavor—black licorice! Thank you, Tami, for all you do to make Walker Elementary a special place.
