Exciting Saturday morning at La Joya ISD!! Our new Interim Superintendent of Schools Mr. Beto Gonzalez along with our Board of Trustees President Alejandro “Alex” Cantu and Board Member Esmeralda Solis got to visit the lovely community of Sam Fordyce Elementary in Sullivan City, where their Cycle 10 ACE program conducted a fantastic Girls Empowerment Conference.
Mr. Gonzalez surprised our Girls Empowerment Conference attendees with a visit and some words of affirmation, and he was easily able to urge them to believe in themselves, value their strengths, and captivate their self-worth.
These subtle details make a tremendous difference to our students. Congratulation to Sam Fordyce Elementary and the Cycle 10 Ace Program for hosting such a motivational event! Together, we are transforming lives and setting La Joya ISD students up for success.








Don’t forget to join us tomorrow for the 17th Annual La Joya ISD Superintendent’s Scholarship Golf Classic! Take a listen for a brief message from our Interim Superintendent of Schools Beto Gonzalez.
