Mr. Allison has always held us up to great standards, and has acted as a strong example of being a caring, insightful, and perceptive individual while maintaining a balance between concern and playfulness. He has made sure to create an environment where everyone can be our true selves, and learn from other’s insights on topics. - Akshaj Sunkara

Mr. Allison has created a warm and welcoming learning environment for psychology. His class has been my favorite this year, not only because psychology is my favorite subject but Mr. Allison has made the class very entertaining to learn in, helping my developing “fluid memory,” as we learned in psych, to retain and recall his lessons. His honesty and relatability with the class, while remaining as an overseeing adult, makes it easier for more timid students like myself to actively participate during presentations. - Lisa Fontaine

Kristen has been the perfect addition to our para team. She came in, questioned her life decisions, but decided to stick around anyway! We are so lucky to have her. She is so kind and compassionate and has such a bleeding heart for all those kiddos who may get overlooked or lost in the shuffle. She's a stickler for the rules so when it comes to entering attendance, she's an exact fit. She's funny, doesn't take herself too seriously and is always good for a quick laugh. She's been my friends for years so having her as a co-worker is just the icing on the cake.

Congrats, Kristen! This recognition is so deserved! -Amy Praytor

Kristen is new to our campus, but she has made a big impact this year. There are very few individuals who understand the amount of work and the massive amount of information that Kristen sifts through on a daily basis, and she does it so well. Kristen work touches every corner of the work we do at Coppell High School, from supporting students, to teachers, to admin, to parents. However, more than just being excellent at her job, Kristen’s approach and attitude are what make her stand out. She is kind, caring, smart as a whip, and I can always count on her to laugh with me about the more “creative” absence requests. I am so grateful for Kristen and that I get to work with her every day! - Taylor Smith-Bothun
