Jen Walter is the DE Education Support Professional of the Year. Jen is an Eagle who is especially at home in the Nest. A 1995 graduate of North Dorchester High School, Ms. Walter is now a Special Education Instructional Assistant at the school, assisting students in general education classrooms, modifying assignments for students, and supporting both the special education and general education teachers. Originally joining Dorchester County Public Schools because the schedule fit in with her family, Ms. Walter says, “Now it feels like home. I love coming to work every day to see the staff and students. I want to see the students become productive members of society when they leave the Nest.” The best thing about her job? “Working with students and seeing their eyes light up because they have made the connection.” Once an Eagle, always an Eagle, and we are so glad to have Ms. Walter back in Nest, supporting even more young Eagles!
