🎥 Meet Gabriella Flores, a senior at LSU and a dedicated Math Friend at Highland Elementary!
Inspired by her father’s volunteer work, Gabriella chose to follow in his footsteps—and last school year, she supported four students in math through VIPS. 💛
“The most rewarding part is watching the students grow and learn. It’s amazing to see the progress they make.”
