Paws of Pride
Let our staff know how much of an impact they have!
Paws of PRIDE is a recognition program designed to celebrate Willis ISD employees who truly embody the values of PRIDE: Passionate, Responsive, Innovative, Dynamic, and Empathetic. While all our staff strive to demonstrate these qualities, some consistently go above and beyond to support their colleagues and community members.
When you submit a Paws of PRIDE form, the recognized staff member will receive a virtual appreciation card that shares the kind words and details you’ve provided.
Help us honor outstanding staff members who are making a difference. Please click on the button below and let us know who deserves recognition for exemplifying PRIDE!
