LANCASTER, OH: Sandra Walker, principal of Tallmadge Elementary School, has been selected to receive the Administrator Award for Leadership in Science Education by the Science Education Council of Ohio.

The Administrator Award for Leadership in Science Education is given to a current elementary, middle or high school administrator who has demonstrated leadership in the development, implementation and maintenance of an outstanding school science program; supported staff development in science; promoted positive relationships between the school's science program and the community; and has been an advocate and leader for the development of science inquiry skills and positive attitudes toward science among students, parents and teachers.
