We are so proud of our 2 amazing students, Karoline Mancha & Philipp Lira who participated in an essay contest coordinated by Communities in Schools, and were selected as finalists out of 1,700 essays across several middle schools in Laredo 🌟 We appreciate the courage it took for each student to share their story and speak on the impact violence has had on their lives and communities. Their voices matter, and their words have the power to create awareness, inspire change, and encourage others to speak up. We hope this experience continues to empower them to advocate against violence in their communities and reminds them that their stories can truly make a difference. 💚

It's "o-fish-al"! Today was all about celebrating our incredible teachers with our "Gone Fishin'" theme! Seeing everyone decked out in their fishing best really brightened up the campus. We started our morning "on the docks" with delicious pan dulce and coffee, and we reeled it in at lunchtime with a classic spread of hot dogs and refreshing aguas frescas. It was the perfect way to refuel and celebrate the hard work you do every day.

This day wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible generosity of the Laredo Federal Credit Union and our amazing teacher, Ms. S. Arredondo. Thank you for supporting our educators and making sure our "tackle boxes" were full!

Lion teachers, thank you for navigating the waters of education with such patience and heart. We hope you enjoyed the day and thank you for being such a "fin-tastic" team!

If the hallways seem extra bright today, it is because we are celebrating the absolute legends of our school. For Teacher Appreciation Week, we are honoring the educators who bring the sparkle and the spirit to every single lesson.

Our theme is Our Teachers are Stars because they don't just teach. They dazzle!

🌟 Why We Thank Our Lucky Stars:
They Sparkle: Their passion for learning is contagious.

They Glitter: They leave a trail of inspiration wherever they go.

They Guide: They help every student find their own "glow" and reach for the stars.

To our amazing staff: there is no space for doubt. You are the best in the galaxy! Thank you for being the glitter that holds our school together and the light that guides our students toward a bright future. 💫
