Thank you from Lancaster Elementary!

All the Coaches at Glen Cove ES ROCK! Thank you for making PE fun. Each of you bring your great talents to the campus, making it a very successful program. The electrifying energy is felt, the welcoming of each student..by name is AMAZING, and kite day was fun. Thank you

Kudos to Mrs. Erika Sagaribay at Glen Cove ES! Here's to you, a teacher that always leads with structure and kindness. Your love of teaching is reflective. You don't teach only half the class, you ensure that all students are successful. Layla absolutely loves you, keep shining!

Kudos to Fire Alarm Systems technician Fernie Munoz and Luis Acosta, assistant, for the installation of burglar alarm sensors at our campus.Thank you for caring for the protection and well-being of Lancaster Elementary.

Mr. Medina inspires his students, faculty, and staff every day by showing how much he really cares for each and every single one of them.  He makes me feel safe, valued, and cared for, and is all about the kids!  He is "For the Valley, For Riverside, For The District!"

Ms. Sylvia Torres, TIS, SIS and Programmers are the best! When reaching out to Sylvia Torres she is prompt and attentive to our requests. Awesome team!

Kudos to the custodial team at Lancaster Elementary: Ben Rocha, Miguel Solis, Mayte Delgado, and Rafael Chaparro for accomplishing all duties during Spring Break. In a team, it is not the strength of the individual players, but it is the strength of the unit and how they all function together.

Pamela is always smiling and goes above and beyond for the students. She is always so helpful and makes you feel welcome.

Kudos to Rene Aguilar (plumber) for his persistent work effort and high integrity in replacing our much needed hot water lines and preventing a serious leak during spring break here at Lancaster Elementary.
He's a strong point in the plumbing department!
                                                           

Jessica is ALWAYS THERE to support our huge campus with our budget and also jumps to assist the campus when asked!  A pressure-filled job done with a smile!

Kudos to our principal, Sandra Stresow, for creating magic by bringing Kahlid to our campus. She always puts students first. Since March is  Women’s History Month, she rightly deserves this recognition as she displays leadership, courage, and love for her community.   Thank you Mrs.Stresow for your love and dedication. You are a true inspiration!

Day one of TELPAS was SMOOTH! Great system for EB testing in classrooms rather than whole group testing. From material pick up, lunch, breaks, and transition back to a regular schedule. Ready for day 2!

Rosana has one of the toughest jobs working with all of our coaches and sponsors to be sure we are following rules and guidelines at a huge campus that carries a huge volume of work.  She is super conscientious about the time demands teachers face and does everything she can to give us one less thing to think about.  She is professional and a delight to work with!

At Ysleta HS, we had a medical incident with a student. Bus drivers Marina Valencia and Diana Moya and their matrons, Alvina Escajeda and Sally Chavez, all helped me with the student emergency, along with teachers Ms. Atkins, Mr. Torres, and Nurse Almodovar. They were ready to lend a hand and I really appreciate them! They did not hesitate to help and stayed until things were cleared up. Thank you all for your help. It truly takes a village and I just want to thank you all!!! Kudos to them!!

It is so refreshing to work at a campus that celebrates all cultures, ethnic groups, and their contributions!  Thank you to Principal Lorraine Martinez and the entire Dolphin Terrace Family for helping to usher in Black History Month with the utmost support! Acceptance begins with US!!!! 

I want to take this opportunity to thank my coworkers and especially Panchito (Frank Gibson), my attendant, for coming through and literally saving my life. Not only am I thankful, but my whole family. I will always be grateful to all of them for going the extra mile and saving me.  Northeast Transportation is fortunate to have great employees! No doubt Northeast showed up.

There was an incident where a staff member was choking during lunch. When I initiated the Heimlich maneuver, Mr. Mena, without hesitation, came to assist me. His promptness and strength helped save our friend's life.

Ms. Castaneda is my co-captain.  She is an asset at our campus.  Our students and staff benefit from being around her. Her professionalism and sweet disposition build rapport with students and staff. She has a caring heart and does not shy away from work.

Mrs. Gomez is an excellent teacher and she goes above and beyond for her students. She has done amazing things for my two kids who had the privilege of having her as their 2nd-grade teacher. Ms. Gomez helped my daughter with an issue that I had been trying to solve for almost 3 years. She cares about her students' well-being as well as their grades. She truly changed a student's life.

Liz Salazar has done an exceptional job processing multiple quotes for our four campus YES Grants. She never hesitates to lend a hand, offer support and guidance to our staff! We are grateful for her patience, guidance and excellent customer service throughout this process. Liz is an amazing Scottie!

Mr. Moreno and Ms. Aguirre have done an exceptional job processing multiple quotes for our campus YES Grants. We are grateful for their patience, guidance, and excellent customer service throughout this process.

Thank you so much to Eileen, Hugo and Aubrae in Accounting for making the impossible possible. Without your prompt attention to an important matter, some of our students would not have heating in their classrooms coming back from Thanksgiving break. Your help is greatly appreciated!

I always hesitate to go to Dolphin Terrace and ask for anything, but when Ms. Garcia is at the front, THERE IS A HUGE difference! Her smile, professionalism, and customer service are above and beyond. Please applaud her attitude and the way she interacts with parents and volunteers.

Congratulations to our illustrious leader, Dr. Xavier De La Torre, for your recent honor among many others.  When you shine, it illuminates the entire District!! Indeed, we are "THE DISTRICT" because leadership matters.

Ms. Merritt is practically the first person at the school every day and is always there for both her students and her fellow staff. She is a strong guiding light for many people and is always willing to help out with information, advice, or a kind word. Her students appreciate her willingness to help them before or after school when they need help. Ms. Merritt's knowledge of the TEKs is in-depth and her students benefit from her efforts to stay updated and current in all things related to education. I really can't say enough about Ms. Merritt, I value her as a coworker and a friend.
