The people of Oklahoma Oil & Natural Gas have awarded Konawa Elementary teacher Diana Wallis with $5,000 dollars for being recognized as one of the Top Ten Teachers of 2022.

Wallis was selected out of more than 200 nominations for her outstanding work in engaging students in her classroom.

“Mrs. Wallis goes above what is expected to help her students learn and provides new and memorable experiences,” said Konawa Elementary Teacher Amity Carter. “She knows that for her students to develop their full potential, they must know someone believes in them and cares for them.”

Konawa Elementary School will also receive $2,000.
