Kudos to Mr. Bernal at Ramona Elementary School!
Mr. Bernal crosses students in the morning, and sometimes Parents pull over after the crossing and in front of busses and drop off their children regardless of safety guidelines and drop students off where they are not supposed to.

Kudos to Mary Mascorro, Service Desk Support, at Central Office TIS!
I was ready to test students on the DRC website for LAS Links. It turned out that the computers I had ready for testing did not support the DRC app and the updates did not work and my students were waiting on me. My IT on campus was not able to download the app on our new testing computers either. I called 41010 and fortunately Mary answered. She went out of her way to help me install the app on the computers I needed for testing. She did this while having to attend a meeting and balance other of her duties. We were able to get testing going and our students did not have to come back on a different day. This is how THEDISTRICT provides exemplary customer service. Thank You Mary!!!!!!

Kudos to Yvonne Acosta, Substitute Teacher at North Loop Elementary!
My daughter’s teacher was out this past week and Mrs. Acosta was the substitute covering for her class. This teacher did very well in keeping the students engaged and keeping them participating even while everyone is at home. She did very well at explaining and clearly telling students what needed to be done. Not once did my daughter say she didn’t know what was going on in class when I would ask. Just wanted to give this sub the recognition she deserved for such a job well done in such a trying time.

He even stayed late on the phone with her to make sure that any problems she had were fixed. Thank you Mr. Villanueva for helping my grandma. She is showing me how to do the hacks you showed her.

Kudos to Cecilia Vasquez, Nurse at Transition to Life Career Center!
My daughter's best friend is in Special Ed and attends TLCC in the YISD. She has said that nurse Cecilia Vazquez is amazing at her job, and is very good with kids. Stephanie has said numerous times that nurse Vazquez was always there when she needed help or assistance and would always calm her down when something was up. Stephanie has described nurse Vazquez as a kind loving person. One of the nicest persons you could ever meet. She hopes to see nurse Vazquez, "her favorite Nursie" once again this upcoming year. Nurse Vazquez has also been described as a nice kind-hearted soul. It would definitely mean a lot if nurse Vazquez saw this and know how much Stephanie and these kids appreciate her.

I would like to commend all teachers for their continued commitment and dedication to their students. With my mom still having to go to work, we were challenged while I was at daycare having to continue my education without any supervision other than the guidance of Ms. Barrera. Her dedication to me showed how much more I can accomplish and has made me a little more independent. I was ready to give up on the dual language program early this year, but her persuasion and willingness helped me develop and assured me that I can continue if I put a little more effort. I miss you dearly and wish we could hug you. May you continue to receive many more blessings.

My son has had teachers before that didn't understand his energy due to the fact that he has ADHD, but Ms. McGlone showed me a different side -- understanding and compassion.
