HECTOR of the Week
Gizelle Jasim for the Hector of the week. Ms. Jasim is very helpful to her student in the classroom. She is very pleasant

Here’s the JH & HS dress up pics:
HECTOR of the Week
JH - Dallus Purcell -Dallus has shown a lot of maturity and takes responsibility for his actions in a positive way. He
works hard in class. He is very coachable and respectful with his teachers. He helps his peers whenever he can. He is
always punctual by being to school early. Dallus has shown HECTOR all over Las Animas Junior High.
HS - Tony Maldonado is our choice for HECTOR of the Week. He has been super positive about starting a new school
and eager to make friends. Tony has a wonderful sense of humor and already demonstrates all the wonderful qualities of
HECTOR. We are so glad that he decided to join our school family.
HS Basketball Athletes of the Week
Varsity - Nicholas Duran. He played well off the bench and provided crucial energy and minutes in a game
where we were flat as a team. He also scored 9 points in the 4th quarter, helping to close out the win against
Ellicott.
JV - Matthew Dowell. He provides leadership and coachability for other athletes. He has worked hard all year
and continues to grab rebounds, provide energy on defense and find open teammates on offense.
Mayela Magana is the varsity pick this week. She came off the bench against Ellicott focused and ready to go. Between
her tough defense against their best shooter and grabbing defensive boards, May was everywhere. She also put up 8
points on the offensive side. Great things to come from this freshman.
JV- Makayla Marfil against Lamar; Abbi McDaniels against Hoehne
