HECTOR of the Week
JH - "Brandon Beckman has really made an effort to consistently show kindness and respect to his class.
HS - Nylah Flores- We can always count on Nylah to keep it real and be HONEST. She is fun to have in class and we
can't wait to see what she does in the future.
Staff - Kelly Ortiz and Laura Garcia (District office ladies) as Hector of the week. They are always willing to help
with a smile. I know I can count on them to help with any problem that has come my way. I appreciate these two ladies a bunch. They are always very friendly to staff and when it comes to talking with the kids, they are the
nicest. Even when they are really busy with their own work, they are always there to lend a helping hand.
